Had one new molt today.

My little 3/4" Costa Rican Tiger Rump (Cyclosternum fasciatum) Molted into a nice 1" + size.

From what I hear is that this species may be reclassified as another species other than Cyclosternum

ChrisNCT I had to laugh when I lloked at your P. murinus picture. It looked to me as if the P. murinus was covering the cricket from a blast. Great pictures by the way. I want a camera.

Are you sure that blondi(male) is mature at 6 inches? I thought they where close(in length) to females when they are mature. In the 8-9 inch range?

Yep..he is matured..in the pic you can see the brown bulb on the palps. They may be bigger than 6" & 7", I haven't measured them..just a guesstimate!




I can't even get near these things withough fangs getting in the way! They are not like my male T. blondi that I hand raised from a sling. I traded him awhile back to a guy for breeding. And now I get these.....life is good!

As soon as they calm down a bit in thier new homes and on tape measures, I'll try the breeding with thew two and take some pics.
