Wow, you're going to be busy with that lot to cope with.

That's absolutely stunning! Good luck for the stirmi + muticus sacks: not easy to breed these ones...! Keep us updated!

I really love to see these babies crawling everywhere. So cute. And you are a good photographer too!

 

[MiaWolf42]

Amazing! Love them.

 

[Austin S.]

Thanks guys. The stirmi and muticus sac was produced a few years back! I am currently breeding stirmi again however.

You better

I like that you tackle big game. You're not breeding OBTs. You're after new, difficult or unique species.

Breeding GBB now. Well, will be breeding three females now, lol.
Waiting on my Pamphobeteus ultramarinus females to mature. Each has two more molts until they are ready. That will be exciting.

 

[Thistles]

Good luck! We need more Pamphobeteus breeders in the states.
