Hi, all

I've been meaning to post these, but have been so busy lately.

My Deroplatys dessicatas mated earlier this week:

(That's one pair, and I'm pretty sure the other pair mated as well).

And my first pair of Phyllocrania paradoxas mated today:

P paradoxas mating.jpg

(I have a bunch more of those maturing now, so should wind up with

several pairs this year).

I know you can barely see anything in the first photo, and nothing

at all in the second, so you'll just have to take my word for it! ;->

They are in these big mesh enclosures, and it's really hard to get

a photo through the mesh and I don't want to open the zipper door and

risk disturbing them to get better photos.
