I'm glad someone asked this question, as I just brought home my first cobalt blue (a little over 2"), and was curious about the growth rate. In my experience, most OWer's are medium to fast, but I ahven't read anything for sure on this species.

to be honest it depends totally on how you keep it, and clutchmates also grow at differing rates too

I would say slow to medium speed, My H. lividum I got her in June 2004 from 1.5'' now to about 4'', only molted once (that I know of) for the 11 months that I have her.
