I received this one just a tad over 1". After that first molt, it showed blue. Just powerfeed it until then!

That's about the size mine is right now.
I think I may have to go toss a few crickets in

Hehe, two a week did me just fine! Just make sure that abdomen doesnt double in size, then molting may become difficult!

That's a cool set up you have for your C. crawshayi.
Is that the big girl that got up close and personal with you?

Yes, that would be her. Let me tell ya, I learned my lesson. Not a good experience whatsoever. I almost did it again though! When I was changing her tank, she did not show the slightest sign of aggression towards me, she actually seemed quit sluggish! I was like, it would be great if I could get a picture of my holding her, or her being on my hand. Thinking this would be the best time, I tried cupping her with my hand, as soon as the shadow of my hand covered her, she stridulated, and the claws on her front legs tried gripping my fingers and tried pulling them to her fangs, haha. I swear, I'm done now!!! :wall:
