    spider/pastel lock

    well, I broke my cherry!

    My first attempt at breeding , and my Pastel female 66% het Ghost locked up with my Spider male tonight.

    I was just wondering , I don't have a night drop thermostat, so should I raise the temps back up during the days?

    or , can I leave the temp at 85 F the whole time?

    Awesome!!! I don't drop my temps. I leave them the same and let the ambient temps shift. Seems to work just fine for me!

    how long do they usually stay locked together?
    Each time I've looked in on them , they're still locked , doesn't seem like he's let go of her since yesterday.

    And , do you guys continue to try to feed them at this time? I'm just waiting for them to separate and then try to feed them , then put 'em back together.

    Congrats on the lock!!!

    Yeah they can stay locked up for a long time. I usually leave mine together for about 2-3 days, then once they are separated I give them about a day or two to adjust before feeding them.

    I think this guide will give you an answer to every question that you have about breeding. Good luck!
