Ok back in nov I put my spider male with my big 2000g female normal. She has had one clutch in her life and is about 6 years old. I never witnessed any lock so I decided to give up thinking my spider had no interest.
Well today she just shed and I think she is glowing, her head almost looks hypo and she is lighter all round.
what I am wondering is if she is glowing and nearing ovulation can you still put the male with them? Or is that it shes fertalized all she is going to and now just wait and see if she does ovulate. If you can still put a male with her Id like to put my pastel with her, see if I can get a clutch with spiders and pastels.
I do have an incubator and if she is gravid then I want to get right to work on my hatchling rack.
