So I've been toying with the idea for a long time and I knew I was definitely going to get a c versi , as it turns out I ended up getting 3 .was a good deal and they even bigger than I was told which is always good :)

They have beautiful colours as slings and a part of me wished theyvwould stay this color but as they mature they still look beautiful. And compared to my other Ts , holy fast. They definitely move.

I also recieved another g pulchripes sling (1 1/2") and a teeny tiny LP sling as a freebie.

Do have another LP (juv female) ordered and an Eupalaestrus campestrus (juv female) .patiently awaiting their arrival to a collection that seems to grow biweekly

Was only a few months ago I got into the hobby. When these 2 arrive I'll be at 16 and already looking at what next .

When does it end? I guess it doesn't. Unless you own every known species in the hobby, male and female and have had successfully mated them all there's always something new right?

Congrats on the new arrivals. I agree they are stunning as slings.

I'm afraid there is no end to the addiction, I now have over 90 and am still looking for new acquisitions :rolleyes:

Congrats. Versicolor was my first arboreal as well. They do look stunning as slings but when mine got the rich purple legs on the last molt I wasn’t dissapointed. Its increbidle that these colors exist in nature.

C versicolor only gets better with age. They go through at least half a dozen color variations each more stunning then the last.

The LP won't stay tiny for long!!

Mine still isn't fully grown, strongly suspect as a male.
