LOL this takes me back to my first time seeing my widow mate. I stuck a male in my females cage thinking, what the heck, why not mate them!
I came back from buying some crickets to seeing them mate, it was an awesome process if you don't think I'm weird saying that
After that I got two egg sacs. I ended up letting her and the egg sacs go underneath a large piece of bark in the nature reserve trail.
Wicked pictures!
