Picutres is my OBT

Adult unsexed P. murinus







Those are all the pictures I have for now, my P. murinus is very camera shy!


Can anyone post a picture of their P. murinus terrariums, I would like to look at some examples so that I can pimp my terrarium out! What type of substrate and live plants are best? Right now I have it in a 10 Gal, with a mixture of potting soil, peat moss, and vermiculite about 5 inches high. For some reason it spends all it's time at the top of the cage, is there something wrong? Does it not like the substrate? I keep it pretty dry in there, so the ground shouldnt be to wet for it. I have only a couple plants, and lots of open space, do you think it needs more plants to feel safe? Also it's last enclosure was filled with webbing, and you could hardly see it, now my spider barely spins any webs. Does that mean anything? Sorry I have no picture of my terrarium right now, I didnt even think about taking a picture of it.
Thanks guys!
Sophia :)

Hi,

Adult unsexed P. murinus
for me is this a antagonism. If its adult and have no bulbs and tibiaapophysis, it HAVE TO BE a female. ;)

(BTW: Your speciemen looks very female to me!)

Hi,

these murinus, especially the male, are'nt pure RCF, but its impossible to tell the color form as so many people cross bred different color form together.

The male looks very much like a TCF
