R these from Tammy's stock? I have 8 of them as nymphs and most r female

Only 2 males lol

Anyways after 2 weeks since females last molt she should be ready of very fat

Open males cage and put her in front of him and if he is mature, he'll quickly mount her and connect shortly

Mating lasts 4 hours

Ya I just feel bad because at first someone asked me for a male but I thought I only had one, then they all started molting as males I think I only have 4 females two adults and two subs

If you are refering to me asking you for a male. My female is dead.

I raised the parents your DJ & Agent A's Creos communually in a net with a live plant that they loved to hang from. I'm not recommending this for everyone. I just didn't have any spare enclosures and didn't care if they mated since I had already raised a generation. And things just happened. Some of the pairs mated shortly after they molted to adults. Alex recommended 2 weeks, and that may be fine for this species.

But for other species, I keep the sexes separate. I typically wait until the female has been an adult for 3 weeks and the male for 2 weeks. I ensure they have been well fed before I put them together. For many species, I increase the temperature and humidity when I put them together.

Here's a good thread for Creos that we all worked on. A lot of content - only a few pages.

Mine have gone cannibal. Was ten, now is six in my 12x12. Caught two in the act yesterday. L3 and L4 age group. Time to seperate

When I had a Creo communal setup I seperated the males and females with a grid. I lost none due to cannibalism but they slowly died off when I went on a vacation. They were casue of mismolts and strange unknown deaths

For me the males are fine togther but the females kill everything including other females so now I just seperated ther females.
