here's my little guy. he's about 4" now... at the size that i no longer feed him alone. he's very fiestey... he'll attack the walls and lid of his enclosure just cause you walk by LOL

and just for fun... let's add some more of my Ts:

so first i put these babies into the shower to give them a nice misting... and then i figured a photo shoot was in order. so my hubby kept them at bay and i snapped a few shots of some of our Ts.

first... our p. metallica. my hubby moved her cork so i could get a good shot of her. isn't she purdey!

all of my Ts are on silkworms now... and loving them. none of them are problem feeders at all. it took some of them a little while to accept silkworms as a prey item... but now they gobble them down as soon as they hit the enclosure. i love the fact that the silkies never both the T so if they are moulting and i don't notice... i dont have to try to get it out like you do with crickets.

Nice pictures. The only problem I've ever had with getting silkworms was feeding them all off :P

Are you interested in an N. chromatus immature male at all?

Nice shots!


I hardly see my baboons at all any more :(

Man I LOVE those pokies! Mighty purdy metallica!

WOW.......super nice!

That is a huge butt on that one.........LOL


I too am very fond of the P. metallica!........:)

ya my metallica is blueing up nicely. she's still tiny though.

schlyne, i'm in canada sorry. :(

Oh well, either I will find a home for the little guy or I'll end up keeping him.

if you want to just get rid of him... i have a suggestion for ya. pm me. :)

I am currently accepting T's :P

cool... just think you tell everyone a caveman in Au Pied du Cochon is raising your T!!!
