Fat ass. He looks like he's gonna molt in the near future. Quite a bold little thing too. Doesn't mind it one bit when I switch out his water dish or drop in some prey. Just stays out in the open watching me do it.

I don't mind slow growers. I know this is a dwarf species, so it's not gonna get that big anyway.

They are bold, mine regularly tried escaping when I opened its container. It has also been known to stick a leg out through the air holes as if waving.

So bold but polite and friendly. Do you ever wave back?

I did get a freebie OBT and bought a Rear horn Baboon.
(C. Darlingi)

Received another freebie Rear horn from the Great Casey K !

Also purchased a straight horn baboon. ( C Marshalli)

P.S. im the only person who hates the latin names.
Yeah, but the scientific names are necessary as there can be lots of confusion. I think that there is a species or species of Peruvian tarantulas that have been called Blue, Blue 2, Large, Small. But even science has messed up on some species.

I personally like the scientific names although there are some that are hard for me to say.

True, however no one uses scientific names for OBTs or GBBs.

Matter of fact, no one uses them for other animals ; dogs , cats, birds, Elephants, Lions, tropical fish.
