Get yours mated first obviously. maybe if we can work something out where I drop off some of my girls for a week to be mated later on. I hope the male you gave me makes it though.

My taus are also only L5. I dont have anything nearly that big or showing any signs of wings yet

The ghost should be heated and given more humidity for a day then turn off the light

They mate in darkness

Thx Sally

Were you ever able to mate your Ghosts?

Do your Archimantis take a long time in between molts? I'm wondering if I'm not keeping mine warm enough. They are growing so slow compared to all of my other species.

Do you have another male you can try? My first three Ghosts I mated have all been laying fertile ooths. Now I'm waiting to see about the other two. Three / five never ate the males, and they died of old age. One finally ate the male. And one of my females that hasn't laid an ooth yet bit the head off from the male. I didn't see them connect. We'll see what happens. Good luck with yours!
