Been a busy week here. I paired both my C versicolor and P regalis back in June both made a sac around thanksgiving ( maybe a week or so later for the regalis) Pulled the pokie sac a few days ago and had 98 EWLs and one bad egg. Left the versi sac with mom because she was doing a great job and slings started to emerge on 1/6. Got them all separated yesterday and had 144 healthy blue slings. It was a perfect sac with no bad eggs or failed molts. Been a great week here.

Congratulations on the sacks...very cool. If I were you I'd find some better enclosures for your slings though. Those work great for terrestrial species but not for arboreals.
Heres a link...

Thanks a lot. I appreciate the link. There actually taller than they look in the pic. (5 oz I believe). They got plenty of space at the moment. Still need to up some sticks in there I just have to cut em to size. I actually looked for the vials and couldn’t find any so I’ll check them out for next time. I hate deli cups personally but it’s what I had ‍♂️
