            Great stuff James. Don't forget to give it a good few days to harden up before offering any food

                        haha, they're great little things! really pleased i get to see them grow. the other one is probably nearing a moult as well, though it hasn't darkened yet, but it's refusing food so far.
                        i've also found that my two Nandhu coloratovillosus have also moulted:P
                        life is good!
                        67 though...geez! haha

                          Hey James you ok man?
                          One of my cambridgei slings from Mary has moulted now, its huge haha.
                          Both are alive and well after the little mishap I had too! Both built sweet tunnels all along the side of the container so i can watch them go about their duties

                              Hurrah for pet holes! I've got a few...hehehe. Thankfully they also come out to pose too, which alleviates some of the worry as to whether I'm feeding an empty tub.
                              But at least these guys are out and on view for a quick photo session! RCF photo as promised.
