Female initiates drumming after words the male starts drumming.

What words were those? "Honey I'm horny"? :laugh:

There is NO risk in leaving the male with the female. I understand Mammon's concern though, not many mature males around, YET.

Most beautiful Tarantula? No doubt...

Good luck to you both.

One mating is enough. If the male had an insert, that'll do piggy, that'll do...

If you want, try again in a week, or three days, or tonight... If an insert was achieved, then you must wait until she drops an egg case, molt and start eating again before mating her again.

That's just the thing. Will you recognize an insert when you see one? Very few people can, even I have never seen a definite insert from a Pokie as it normally is a quick, split second affair. Is why in some cases, the male is left with the female for a week or more, then the praying starts.
