?The one I had whole entire body and legs were purple.. it was a bit bigger tho.
I think males have a different color (dimorphic) than females. Males being more dull ..

Yess, thats ok, but violaceopes no different at this age... Borneo black's, and nigerrimums are different, but viola's no... And the other species, who have sexual dimorphism, it looks just after 8. molt, or after maturing.

I have also heard that these guys are sexually dimorphic as slings like the nigerrimum, but i'm not 100%.

I did some research, and no, it isnt like nigerrimums, but not a big different. The violaceopes show different after 6. molt. The nigerrimums show different after 3!
