He (B. albopilosum) just needed some support, she had backed him up so far, he was going to fall over the edge.

Nice Rob,
Boy your female looks really healthy. Is she just out of a molt?
Good luck getting a sac.:)

Rob,

She should be laying her sac anytime now.

Here he is with my girl...they mated successfully once...the 2nd time she ate him. Here are the last pics of him...

I found them easy to breed, but the female sure wanted to eat him afterwards!
Beware the eggsac, I got over 600 of the little cuties! Joy got 7-800, if I recall correctly!

Yeah, I hadn't posted any pics in quite a while so what the hey...
She's pretty huge right now, but no sack yet.

She was about 6 or 7 weeks out of her last molt. She does look kinda cool. She actually stays fairly dark/black most of the time and doesn't brown out/fade too much like my other female.

You are right on the money there! As soon as they were done she made an all out attempt to have him as a snack, but he literally teleported to the other side of the tank.:)

I actually also have another female that I bred with a separate male for two different bloodlines. She's also huge and looks like she's about to pop. Boy, if both sac's are viable, I might be up to my armpits in slings. That would definately result in...free slings for everybody that wants some!:D

I may breed mine when she matures just to get experience in the breeding world. I still have like a molt or 2 possibly though.She is around 3.5"

I can't even imagaine how that many tiny slings would even look like? That would be imazing. I guess other breeders have delt with this before and its no big deal though. Have you ever had more then one sack from diffierent T's to take care of before?
