I wasn't really even looking, but these three found me.

It took me a while to find a little tiny B. albiceps a couple of months ago. I strolled over to the booth next door, and this little one was sitting there waiting for me. This is the only one I bought. I brought her home Saturday night and she molted on Sunday night or early Monday morning.

My friend brought this one for me and it molted on Saturday. I brought her home on Sunday night after the show. We traded some tubs of roaches and some AMAC boxes. B. vagans. The bottle cap is for size reference:

And the new enclosure for the B. vagans. She likes her cave and found it within minutes of moving in.

At the very end of the show, I had about 15 tubs of lateralis and 10 tubs of dubia left. I was dreading taking them home and having to unpack them, so I was trying to give them away. My friend Chris who gave me the B. vagans, quickly set up a deal for me to get this little B. auratum in trade for that those roach tubs that I was trying to give away to other vendors after the show. What a little gem! If I had known it was sitting over there at that table, I would have bought it!
