I have tried several search combinations, and have come up with a partial answer, but not exactly what I am looking for. I just got a seemani off CL. I believe it is a sub-adult male. Leggy, and what I see as a hint of what would become tibial hooks at later molt.
(I will post photos tomorrow or so when I move it out of the cage it is in. It was rescued by the fellow I got it from, it's in too small a KK, on some kind of shredded bark, no hide, etc. I don't have coir or peat here, and I'm not going to disturb it twice. I'll probably pick it up and photo it ventrally tomorrow when I rehome.)
So, the question is, has anyone seen "pre-hooks" on an immature male, that was confirmed on the next molt or two to be a MM? This one does NOT have boxing gloves yet. I have had several MMs, and the hooks are not present...just what I think "might" be a bump where the hooks will be.
If someone has a thread or search tagged, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
