The Hottentotta judaicus looks awesome with just the tip of it's claws a different color. The fat tail is cool too.

Hello,

Wonderful pictures as always, and great looking specimens!!

Can you please tell us if you are able to breed the Orthochirus successfully and raise the instars? I have been thinking about giving these a try but heard that breeding is extraordinarily difficult in the first place, and even if they do give birth, the instars always die young.

I was just wondering if you have experienced the same difficulties as well.

Thank you.

Hi Roy

I breed the Orthochirus innesi not and can not therefore speak from personal experience.
But like you said the discipline seems really very difficult. Especially the young adult to get. Supposedly in this species a large failure rate.

Have you tried feeding the instar some crush crickets ? I learned this from a friend and works great on other sp. but I never tried it on Orthochirus sp. I currently have two pregnant female right now. I still don't know how I'm going to raise the babies but so far I will try that technique. If you guys know a better way on slings husbandry please let me know.
