Thanks. Im hoping to breed her after her next molte. The male showed his hooks on his last molte last november. Otherwise I'll have to find a male, which could be tough.
Good luck with pairing. She looks big enough now but if her moult cycle is not in tune with the male, then any success would likely be lost if she moulted on you.
May be worth an attempt or two though?

Sure. There is plenty of info here on the forum. If you end up with a sac, pull it at 30 days (average time to pull a sac). There are photos here and videos online of how to make a good incubator for the eggs with just coffee filters and deli cups. Some folks even use panty hose.
Here is a link to a thread that may help you. Also, @Arachnoclown will have some great advice for you, I'm sure.Egg sack advise , first time breeding
Ok so I JUST joined up and wanted opinions on if I should let my arizona blonde female hatch the eggs herself or take the sack away and deal with it that way . I'll mention that she is not a first time mom and when I found her in the wild she actually had over a hundred babys all over her and...

Is exact temperature important?
