All imports including the female I got from you are deceased. But the cb male I got from you is doing great! I’ve had several import pairs at different times, their behavior seemed normal. They ate moved around their individual cages. When females colored up and became receptive I bred them...

Way to go Bill! All the old timers know how difficult it is to keep at it continuously without any breaks. Keep up the good work.

Craig, glad to see you’re back at it. Are you still keeping Craig glad to see you back at it. Are you still keeping willsii?

I haven’t seen any Mt. Meru in this country for many years.

I start my hoehnelii neonates on pinheads, after 3 weeks on pinheads they can take 1 week old crickets.

How about posting pics of the parent pair.

5 weeks old

No not really one of the cues I look for. The uncalcified eggs are semi-adhevsive and most stick to branches some fall to the floor. Most females remain up in the branches but move around between each egg deposition. I would check the temps in the higher areas in her cage. Adjust temps to 75F...

No, I go by their behavior. Weight won’t tell you much- too dependent on age and size of the female. Younger females deliver 6-8 babies, larger older females can have 12-15 babies.

I live on the central coast in Ca. I keep them in all screen cages outdoors 8-9 months of the year depending on the weather. Babies are in the cham room for 2-3 months in plastic tubs depending time of year. Hoehnelii cycle twice a year regardless if bred.

I edited the above post

Optimal temps:~ 75F. daytime, 50-55F. night. Humidity: 50-60% daytime, 85-100% nights. These data are plus or minus. They can survive almost freezing temperatures at night and can certainly take 85F. during the day.

Yes, for about 12 years now. I currently have 2.3 adults and 8 babies about 3 weeks old. You can search me in the photography section for some of my past hoehnelii.

You better have some small feeders ready. They usually drop their babies around noon.

Yes, I keep hoehnelii. They are a wonderful species. Your female looks just about ready to pop. Has she slowed down eating? You need to have some small feeders ready for when she drops the neonates.

Glad to know. It’s hard to discern sometimes in text.

She has a month or so to go. Live bearing species keep one on their toes! You know I’m joking about you always wanting more pictures right? I like posting pictures.

Some things never change, it’s a good thing. LOL Gravid female, I like her blue tipped rostrum.
