Nice thread and great T foursome!:T:

One day, I will get an albo (or two). Love them.
Some, in the hobby, don't get as hairy as they should so am hoping that, when I do get one (or two), it/they will grow up to be quite hairy.

I still love them all. Nicarao is the Nicaraguan albo which should end up more hairy than the Hondurans, just a baby at the moment, just 5th instar. .

I hear ya.:)
Am sure that, when I do get mine, I will still love the heck out of it even if it turned out to not be as hairy as I'd have wanted it to be.

I don't think I'd have ever bought one if I hadn't got Coco as a freebie and fell in love. They are so adorable.

great pics :) love the curlies! wish mine hadn't hooked out, the males aren't so cool looking when they get gangly legged. Figure mine has 6 months -ish, he hasn't eaten since he molted a month or so ago.

Coco, my first B. albo moulted today 11 months since her last one. She was the one I got as a freebie exactly 3 years ago today.

So cool to see the comparison of tiny sling and giant fuzzball! I bet it would make a cool display too if you were feeling crafty.

I have all of her moults which would look great mounted but I'm afraid I'd probably wreck them if I tried.:(

I thought I ought to update as it may well be the last time I still have them all.

Coco. hooked out in August 2017. I'd always thought Coco was female but sadly not.

Jalen hooked out in December 2016 and is looking decidedly rough but he's still active

Tinto, always the smallest and shyest of the 3 Hondurans. Last moulted May 2017

Nicarao, the Nicaraguan
