KitKatie329 Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 Yep, both sexes have beautiful wings! As long as you're talking about the tesselatas of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Coco fiber and cypress mulch for the A. tesselatas. Zephyr: I thought he might have another molt In him but I wasn't sure, how do you know? The horns aren't fully developed and he still has juvenile coloration, though the latter generally isn't always noticeable. Generally they lose that white-ish colors between the tergites as adults and it only becomes noticeable again in gravid females. Make sure he has an exceptionally comfortable place to molt as often these gigantic "morph" individuals will have deformed antennae if they molt under anything but the best conditions.

Keith Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Is it normal for them to get this large or is yours an exception? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KitKatie329 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Is it normal for them to get this large or is yours an exception? No, he is definitely an exception. My hissers seem to be on the larger side for whatever reason, but he is just gigantic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
