Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I keep a few
I also bred them about 7 years ago and am now working on it again
they seem to like it a little on the dry side and also seem to be nervy captives and readily flick the hairs
great eaters and fast growers, gotta love the colors <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='  '>

We're working on breeding them now as well. Hopefully an eye sack is on the way. We are trying the 10 gallon method with both of them together, the males seem to be rather nervous around the females! I'll keep everyone updated.
Thanks
Justyn

Gee Justin
I thought you meant a sac of eyes lol
You should have good luck breeding them , just make sure the female has a web home built before you introduce the male
One more question did your male make a sperm web <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>? <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

The male is now out of the cage, we are fairly certain they have bred, although we did not get to see them mate. We did see them attempt to mate several times though, the male would lift her up, he would just not deposit the sperm. I'll keep everyone updated as to what happans. Yes, he has made several sperm webs already.
Thanks
Justyn

They hatched, and just got through their first molt! We lost almost the whole eggs due to a fungus, finally I had enough, tore ito the egg sack, and was able to save only six out of about 200 eggs! Either way, we successfully reproduced them, so I'm happy! We have another female that should be breeding within two weeks, lets hope that one goes well and we have an egg sack in another month after that. Enjoy the pic of our Greenbootle Blue babies!
Thanks
Justyn

hi tracey ,yes greenbottle blues are awesome, they seem to be tough as nails, i can't get over there awesome colors myself, i actualy hear they prefer a drier climate , also i would make sure that before you attempt to breed them that the female has moulted at least a few months before hand and of cousre the male makes a sperm web, i'm currently working on getting a few t's to breed at the moment, but am having a hard time tracking down a female for a reasonabl price (P. ornata), take care.
