Also, and this is a big one...put the male and female together as soon as you can AFTER the female has shed.

Leave the shed in the cage as well.

If the shed is dry, mist it.

Some say put the male in the female's cage...I personally put the female in the male's cage...throws her off her game and before you know it...HEMIPENE!

The time of the year is critical as well...when you see your first lock up...make sure you keep good records of the date...you can bank on it next year if you keep all the conditions the same.

Good luck...
