Thanks everyone. And cheers to Tunedbeat on your recent sac. (big fan of your pics btw) After clearing away some duds it looks like I have about 60 post embryos.

Philth: not early to marry?

Sorry I dont understand, prehaps you can re-phase this question?:?

Thanks, guys!

Awhile back, I dissected the tarsal claw from the P. subfusca's previous molt and came out with two images. The first photo is compiled of four different images. Second, is compiled of ten, all stacked in Helicon Focus. Hopefully, I can come out with some cleaner images next time around, as I'm still trying to refine my technique.

Male P. Rufilata Molt

I looked into my male P. Rufilata's enclosure to find that he'd molted overnight. He gained quite a bit of size and looks stunning! Here's some pics:

Female P. Formosa - Fresh molt pics

My female P. Formosa molted last night - she is simply stunning and about 6.5" now.

MM P. Regalis (Mature Molt):

P.ornata colony pics

I had to change the container for the ornata colony so I thought I'd get a few pics of them in their new home. They are now 5th instars and almost 3". They are doing well:

Jaw dropping!!

Those pics are insane...........:worship: :worship:


BTW what lens did you use??

 

[Sooner]

This is my juvenile P. regalis. He/she is only about 2.25" but I don't know the gender for this one yet. Is this too small to tell with the dorsal stripe?

Another view:

 

[badboi]

I say male for this one...
