    Day 34 on waiting for eggs! Should I be worried?

    It has been 34 days since her prelay shed! She is huge and grumpy! I never had one go this long! Should I be worried?

    Thats too funny! I have never had one(first year breeding) go past day 30! It's good to know that I still have quite of bit of time left before worrying! Egg bound is a nightmare that is always in the back of my mind! Thanks again Rich!

    Here is an update! She laid 9 big, beautiful eggs on Day 37! They weighed 937 grams! This is a normal black back female to a Spider! I paired this guy with another female and she only laid 4 eggs, one was a boob egg that died! I got all normals! That was my first clutch ever! I hope I get some Spiders from this one! Here is some pics!

    Mom on eggs!

    What quart tub do you have your clutches in? Do you usually get that many eggs from your females?

    DANG that is a lot of eggs.

    My girl did a pre-ovy shed but never bothered to do a pre-lay shed. I was freaking out pretty bad waiting for THOSE eggs.

    Awesome! 9 little worms coming. Sounds like bundles o joy! Congrats on the upcoming buggers. I'm sure you'll have something fun come out of them.

    Ps I had a girls who didn't give me a prelay shed too this year. I wasn't even expecting them but darn it when they did I was happy.

    This is only my second clutch ever! My first clutch had only 4 eggs(one being a boob egg that died). I use a 6 Qt. shoe box size tub! About 6 eggs is average but they can go into the teens!
