Hey guys,

My breeding pair have already mated , first time was for two hours, second time was for 6 and a 1/2 hours, and they actually did connect. So I thought I might try again today but now he is really old and didn't jump on as much as walk on but she got mad and grabbed him but he grabbed back and put a tiny hole above her front legs.. But she took a tiny chunk out of his eye and broke two of his legs and ate 1 antenna. So should I just give him to her? I may as well?

Thanks,

Cole

 
Don't just feed him to her....get her to grab his head/upper thorax, his reaction should be to try andate with her....see if you can detach his upper thorax from the rest of his body and place him on her back, with his legs he should try and grasp her and his abdomen should try to mate with her.....its hard to explain but sorta set him up-help the rest of his body to try to mate with him...
