This is my Babycurus jacksoni named Jack. He just had a huge meal. Hope he molts soon.

This was him a few meals before:

And this was him when I got him:

He's grown a lot, huh?

Agree. Imo, It's practically impossible to look at a Parabuthus villosus and not try to get it...

This is my Babycurus jacksoni named Jack. He just had a huge meal. Hope he molts soon.

Great coloration and appetite! Hopefully he'll molt for you soon. Do post an update up when he does
