BABIES!

[exsecrare]

So one of my G. Portentosa females finally had a litter. Have only seen 4 or 5 so far and only early in the morning, near the water dish.

This is exciting.

Yes, I waited forever for my dwarf hissers to take off. Now when I look in there it is like a roach plague... : )

[MrCrackerpants]

Ya, they are very cool. One of my favorites.

Sorry for the crappy quality, was the best I could do. I found that little guy hiding on the lip of the vivarium so I placed him inside. The white stuff is calcium, no matter how well I think I filter the water it always seems to show up. I use distilled water now.

Very cute!

Congrats. Since it's been 2 months since they were born, how are they now? Are they all healthy and thriving? Full grown yet?

That's cool being I have Hisser babies I noticed your nymphs are similar yet different. I have oblongonata vanweirbecki cross and my babies have orange dots on their back and are more black than gray colored.
