Forcep Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Those are some nice looking guys Have you ever been bitten or sprayed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pannaking22 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Awesome inverts! On my wishlist for sure! Is this your first captive bred generation? I've heard that Platymeris are parthenogenic, but can have males present. Is that how this species is, or do you just have both males and females?

Apparently, that parthenogenesis stuff is a rumor, and there's no solid proof for it, which would explain why several people who've owned only females never got offsprings from them. I have two males and a single female by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cariblatta lutea Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 I was sprayed in the eye by P. biguttata when I was young. Something you'll never wanna experience again lol I saw a thread about someone who got sprayed in the eye by the mombo, and it looked terrible! I'm hoping this will never happen to me. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpet Roaches Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I've been sprayed in the eyes a number of times and as long as you rinse it out and don't rub them the effect is very minor. The bite on the other hand is quite terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
