Hey All the ATB breeders.....
Looking for a little info and advice.....
Iv been pairing up one pair, and whilst together 5 dys of 7 they curl up together on the branches, Iv not seen any breeding tho.... My male has refused his last 2 feeds and hes not in slough... Are these good signs????
Female is proven, male is 19mths and 3-3.5ft.
Any input/ advice /comments welcome....
This is my first time breeding ATB, and would love to hear others experiences

I would leave them in together. Assuming that you are dropping the night time temps to about 68F every night all you have to do is increase humidity and wait.
Good luck.

Whilst it's not something I have tried, I have heard introducing a secondary male can encourage mating as they see competition for the female. Like I said not something I have tried but have heard along the grapevine to work

i would not attempt this ! etb and gtp can be very territorial and could kill or seriously injure each other.
unless you are ready to sort out some carnage,
just keep the night temp's low and up the humidity and wait, patience is all that is needed. don't try to rush them as it could be for the worse. |
