Hisserdude 871 Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 Got a trio of nymphs from @Bmaines96, I'm so looking forward to breeding this finicky but beautiful species! Nymphs have a very fiery coloration, I love it! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I love them! I'm sorry to hear that, how are you keeping them? Elliptorhina can be a bit finicky, but javanica is supposedly one of the easier ones. Thanks, will do!

Hisserdude 871 Posted January 9 Author Report Share Posted January 9 My male molted, into what I believe is a subadult... Either that or a small adult, I'm not sure TBH, do Elliptorhina adult males get the really fuzzy antennae like other hisser genera do? Also, note the loss of most of the abdominal tubercles, this is normal in male davidi, females usually stay bumpy even in adulthood though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
