Parahybana EXPLODED!!!

[DalilahBlue]

Look at this! The first pic is when I got her back at in late 11/12. The second is a quick pic I snapped when I removed the molt.

Dangit, I just realized she and the G. pulchiripes are the only two we didn't take reference pics with the die. The pic with the die is post moult, and she is well over 2 inches. The other 2 are from when I first got her and she was just over an inch.

She at least DOUBLED in size. I knew parahybanas where known for impressive moults but WOW!!

 

[harleyqueen]

Omg that's really impressive ! You must be feeding them good stuff!

 

[DalilahBlue]

Just gut loaded crix. I was shocked.

 

[harleyqueen]

She's gonna be a monster.

 

[Nada]

Yeah, That's a Parahybana for you. She'll be a monster in no time.

 

[DalilahBlue]

I can't wait.

I had one years ago she was huge when I got her. I had trouble finding a hut big enough for her, I had to put two together in the end.

I am so glad that this thread turned out to be completely opposite from what I pictured in my head when I first read the subject line LOL. That is a pretty impressive size increase!! She's adorable btw!

 

[DalilahBlue]

She's pretty timid for a LP, but a beauty.

Got to be honest I panicked when I read that she had exploded......

 

[DalilahBlue]

Lol, sorry to have panicked everyone.

 

[DalilahBlue]

I could just imagine....

"I found out today you really aren't supposed to feed T's PopRocks... "

More pics of the freshly moulted Shelob!

 

[Scoolman]

Wow. I have six tiny slings, and they just dont seem to grow, none of them are very aggressive eaters.

 

[DalilahBlue]

My babies love chopped up gut loaded crickets. Shelob is very timid, but voracious once she figures out the cricket chunk isn't going to hurt her.

 

[Scoolman]

I need to check my notes for dates, but I got them at 1i, and I think they molted ..........4 times now( I think, again, I need to check my notes) they are still under 1"

 

[DalilahBlue]

This is her first moult with me. She was right at an inch, maybe 1.25 before the moult

 

[Scoolman]

Maybe the next molt for these will be a big jump.
