    We have eggs!!!

    Ok not as exciting for some I know lol but this is the first clutch we have ever produced and its a pretty nice feeling of accomplishment. We have three females that we believe are gravid right now and the first laid today!!! She gave us 8 eggs no slugs! All three females were bred to a spider so nothing special but we truly couldn't be happier! They have been relocated to the incubator and mom has had her tub washed and she has been washed and we are all smiles!

    Quick question how long should I wait before I attempt to feed her? She looks really bad lol I can't wait to start feeding her and helpin her get back to a healthy size.

    Re: We have eggs!!!

    Congrats! Totally happy for you.

    And x3. Give her a week. Start with a small meal, then start feeding her when she's hungry. She will be a monster for the first month or two as far as eating goes.

    Actually you can try her right away. I've had females lay eggs in the morning and eat that evening. They are usually VERY hungry after laying.

    Well we had a big feeding night last night so we figured we would try her and she ate a small rat and a small ASF ther one of the others refused . So we are both happy she eating. Crazy how small they look after they lay lol. Thanks for the help!
