[QUOTE="Enn49, post: 127156, member: 3458"] As these are so slow growing and there is a lot of interest in them I thought a thread documenting my little one, [B]Chila[/B]'s, life so far. A friend, [USER=3455]@sym[/USER], first received Chila on March 3rd 2015. This was the little one back then. [ATTACH=full]28435[/ATTACH] I bought it from Sym on 21st Feb.2016 knowing its last moult had been around the end of Jan 2016. This was what it looked like when it arrived. [ATTACH=full]28436[/ATTACH] And in its new home a 2" dia. vial [ATTACH=full]28437[/ATTACH] [B]Chila[/B]'s first moult for me was on 10th June 2016. So tiny. [ATTACH=full]28440[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]28441[/ATTACH] [B]Chila[/B] next moulted on 14th Sept. 2016 and had grown by a more noticeable amount, now around 0.5" [ATTACH=full]28443[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]28444[/ATTACH] It seemed a long wait for [B]Chila[/B]'s next moult on 7th April 2017, a full 7 months but it was worth the wait as it is beginning to show some adult colouring [ATTACH=full]28445[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]28446[/ATTACH] The next moult came quite quickly on 13th July 2017 [ATTACH=full]28447[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]28448[/ATTACH] Now comes the winter wait until its Spring moult, almost 8 months so far this year. There definitely seems to be a pattern to [B]Chila[/B]'s moults, Spring and late Summer. [/QUOTE]
