Does anyone who has bred p.murinus (orange form/RCF) know how long the gestation period is and roughly how many slings you can expect? I have heard of some Murinus females "double clutching" etc. The reason i ask is that i may have a eggsac for my female, i say "may" as i am not 100% sure. There are a few reasons for me being sceptical, 1. When i bought said T the seller didnt know if she was WC or CB, 2. i have not personally mated her (although it was on the cards), 3. in the weeks before she completely webbed herself away she ate heavily (3+ large crickets every week). My initial thoughts were she was due a moult and was a SA not adult. Curiosity got the better of me and at night i would try and see through the webbing and can see what looks like a thick white ball...obv being orange she sticks out like a sore thumb lol 
.
I have decided to throw caution to the wind and not disturb her and in 15 days or so have a look through top of cage with torch etc,and then after 30 days peeking though the webbing. Being the first sac, it is odd when you are looking for a pre-formatted notion of what an eggsac looks like, and finding out that murinus lay hammocks... could anyone shed light on this mystery? A photo is forthcoming
