Message: <blockquote data-quote="Arachnoclown" data-source="post: 152718" data-attributes="member: 27444">Notes...Spindra (female) 8.5"Lemmy (male) 9"Only one pairing ...insertion was extremely fast. (See video)After the insertion you can clearly see her furrow was wide open. She then began to rub her furrow for hours afterwards. She also moved extremely slow and lethargic for around 12 hours or so. I kept her at my normal T Room temperature of 82 degrees and @ humidity 50%. I flooded her enclosure after she was done fattening up and webbed off her entrance. I didnt add anymore water except the normal overflow of the water dish. Her enclosure is a 18x18x24 exoterra with a boot shaped corkbark. Her burrow was over 14" deep, it extended 6" past the bottom of the bark. I pulled the sack on day 30 from noticing the sack. She didnt give up the sack easily... One thing I would have done different would be to make a second entrance or exit fro her burrow. It would have been nice to distract her from the sack from another entrance.</blockquote>
