not so

its been 3 weeks of having this 2.5 inch guy and he's still under my observation...i made a retreat and for the first week he doesnt care about it it acts as an arboreal...during the second week it made a burrow then since my substrate is not so deep it failed so the 3rd week he now use the retreat finally...this is very opportunistic..the bad news is that during its 3 weeks in my supervision he didnt eat even a little until now maybe he in the premolt but its difficult to know since he is an old wolrd...hoping for your reply...share to me your pics and experience alice thanks for the comment....

The photo is kinda small, but it looks like a beauty you have there.

I posted in the announcements a few days ago that my big C. huahini molted for the first time since I got her. Here are some pics. She changed colors drastically from a light reddish brown to what you see here (see my avatar pic). I've been told that Chilos darken quite a bit when they molt, but this is the darkest huahini that I have ever seen, which makes me wonder... Let me know what you all think. Sorry I don't have a nice camera or skills like Ryan:drool: .

Yeah, she has gotten pretty big and is one of my favorites. I really like this genus and can't wait to get more:).

Just had to show off how much better and fatter she has got. It's something what a little care can do. And the webbing. I think she comes out every night and webs a little more.
