I think my Spectral Pygmy has egg bound. I didn't think about egg bound because she layed 2 eggs 40 days ago.
She usually stays on top of the branches, but these few days she't trying digging (I guess). And, yesterday I checked her abdomen with my hand and I feel one egg is sitting there...
First, congratulation! I also have spectral pygmys and my female layed 2 big eggs about 5 weeks ago. They were buried near the root of dead orchid and I dig them and move to somewhere.
And few days ago, same female, I guess, showed some different behavior with enlarged body. I think she will...
I have 2 of mine laid 05/05/10. No obvious sign of something, but I think they will hatch soon. no mold, no dent, but looking good so far.
Wish you a good luck!
i love your female jacksons. I had a chance to keep female with red/brown color. That color was also OK, but I like green/blue better. Thank you for nice pictures.
i'm also so excited with my spectral pygmy eggs. I still don't know it's fertile or not, but it seems OK so far. No rot or shrinking or any sign of bad thing. ^^
yes! They are one of my favorite. Once I'll have a chance, I'll recruit them.
I have read few information online, but basically not much known about them.
