L. Nigerrium

C. Arndsti

P. Lugardi

A. Brocklehursti

[Simon Batten]

that first one doesnt look like a L.Nigerrium, I could be wrong though it just looks like a H.Minax to me

I tend to agree, the whole structure of the T looks very 'tailand black' yet the silver sheen on the legs puts me off (unless its a lighting issue)

If we're incorrect simon, lets give up and stick to hamsters

Never the less an impressive specimen that i would find hard to pass up the chance of purchasing.

ROTFL mis-read that then Colin .. was worried where Hamsters were going to be stuck !!!

I brought from the shop as a l.nigerrium but did have doubts that it was H. Minax either way she was a great t to the collection

[Simon Batten]

I agree shes stunning a nice T to have in any collection, pretty sure shes not a L.Niggerium I looked at some other pics and I recon shes an H.Minax is she really defensive??

[Colin D Wilson]

Definitly stunning !!, I've looked through some old photos of a Minax i had back in the 90's, very similar...

she was quite calm unless you had to open the lid then she got defensive

[Simon Batten]

hmmm I dont know too much about L.Niggeriums but I do know that Minax are really defensive and would go up into the threat position if you took the lid off I cant seem to find much info on L.Niggerium any ideas where I can??

[Rebecca Burrett]

ive tried but all ive found out is that they need high humidity and deep burrow but that is all

[Colin D Wilson]

Just looked back over thread, i obviously read what i wanted to read and didn't notice the spelling, If you look for information on Niggerrimum (sometimes listed as Niggerrimus) you may fair better.
