Neoholothele incei - Calypso

I'm still hoping this oneis a female. Yoda and Calypso are the same age but Calypso is moulting much less frequently than Yoda has.
I'll be honest, I'm not 100% sure but I don't think it's the gold. I originally ordered a gold but they'd sold out and offered me 3 slings instead, that's how I have Yoda and Calypso, sadly the 3rd died quite early on. Yoda and Calypso looked identical until Yoda's last moult when he matured. Definately more copper than gold or olive.
 
I have BOTH color forms and neither look like yours. I want one!!! Must......have.....T!!!!! :p
 
@Casey K You've got me intrigued now, my first thought was to contact the shop where I bought them but that isn't an option now. I knew they looked different to photos I'd seen but put it down to lighting.
 
@Enn49 well, if it is a new color form, no worries!!! It's not the bad "H" word, lol.....you can breed gold H. incei with olive H. incei because they are just "color forms" of the same species. :) I hope you have one! If so, it's definitely the first I've heard of or even seen of a new color form introduced to the hobby! Fingers crossed for you! Beautiful T!
 
It would be nice to think I had something new but sadly I have no intention of breeding. I'm still thinking this one may well be female as Yoda had moulted 7 times before the moult in May when he matured whereas Calypso has only moulted 6 times and not at all since last August.
 
@Casey K Probably around 2" although I rarely see it as it lives most of its time in its tunnels and this was the first time it has been on top for a couple of months.
