sooo..

After a T has laid a sac, when is it okay to re-introduce a male to her.

I wouldn't until after her next molt.

I give my females a year off between breeding and breed them every other year. I don't want to burn them out.

Normally neither would I. But recently I mated a Cyriocosmus bertae. She had a eggsac that she destroyed about 20 days in. I put the male back in with out her molting, and she then went on to have a good eggsac that hatched. First time I've done that and it actually worked lol. Not that I'm going to make that normal practice now. I guess its unclear if she double clutched or actually got pregnant a second time, but still cool.
