@Nikos,

You always have really good macros. I am glad so many babies survived, this species is just beautiful. It looks like you had some trouble with the babies, they are certainly fast, aren't they?;):D Nice enclosure too, by the way.

@MrSure1, that is very interesting. Did that specimen survive, and if it did, what instar is it now?

Hah I must think about new cage, but I have time;)
Yes, babies are quite fast but bigger problem was that they can hide in tiny holes...
C.nigrescens, now moved to bigger enclosure-and I see it once a week :D
