With much thanks to David Richards, who sent me his male T. Apophysis for breeding. Session #1 pix attached:
1) Male approaching
2) ever closer...
3) BAM! She pushes him into corner
4) He stands his ground, getting into position
5) Taking a break...
6) All done!
This pair needs to mate again to ensure more inserts, but this was a quite a show!!! WOW!!! :D :)
Enjoy!
Greg ;P

T. Apophysis Project...

Thank you all! Session #2 coming up this week. I ordered a new Nikon-25529-Coolpix S1, 5MP, 3X OPT digital camera yesterday. It should be here within a few days. I will use this new camera for session #2 and all my slings. No more 35mm film and floppy discs... finally. :razz: :)

Great pics, nice T's. Did you raise that big girl from a young age or was she an adult when you bought her?

Awesome! I love seeing breeding pics. Thanks for posting them, and I can't wait for the new ones.

He's a big boy isn't he? She looks to be a pretty large female, and he's pretty close to her size...probably the largest male apophysis I've seen.

Anyway...good luck with the breeding, and I hope you get a nice healty sac.

Hey Nick,
I raised this female from a sling.

Very nice, it must be great to see a such a big T, you raised from a sling, mating. Hopefully she'll produce a nice sackful of slings for you.
Goodluck
