Aphonopelma surprise

[NottsM]

I have a wild caught A chalcodes. She had been digging and moving stuff a lot recently, then webbed herself into her burrow a couple of days ago. I checked her yesterday expecting to see a molt, but she has dropped an egg sack!. Anyone have any experience breeding Aphonopelma that can offer any advice? Many thanks.

Congratulations and check the Tarantula Breeding section here, and google. Lots of good info to be found and you have between 23-30 days or so to get ready.

Check this thread 'Egg sack advise , first time breeding' https://www.tarantulaforum.com/threads/egg-sack-advise-first-time-breeding.27493/

Ps. @Enn49 can you move this thread to Tarantula Breeding

I did try Google first, but there is lots of mixed information. The link to Casey's advice was exactly what I needed, thanks. I'll let you all know how I get on.

Google is not good. Too much nonsense. You will get much better answers here at our great forum...
