Interesting color/pattern for a Lesser.
I have been attempting to get her to produce eggs for several seasons with no success. I am no amateur-I have lots of tricks.
She has rejected all my project orientated males (squabbling, teeth marks, and blood).
I have confirmed her gender multiple times.
After testing nearly all my males this season: she will only tolerate and lock with one of my Super Black Pastel Spiders (Photo #34).
I strongly suspect no eggs again this season.
Will try again next year exclusively with her preferred male...

I do admit I have had many failed several attempts to tumble Red Corundum (Ruby) and Blue Corundum (Sapphire) in different crystallization formations. These remain pending.
Someone suggested that I put the stones under Black Light to actually confirm if they are rubies as they would fluoresce pink. Yep.

Here is what the original material looked like:
