Hi everyone,

I've been quite busy as of late and have not been able to take many photos.

yet I promised Kiet that I'll post a few of his Lobatas, so here they are.

most of them just didn't want to come out of the cage, but this female that just molted was agreeable.

she kept trying to crawl onto the camera as you can see here...

here is one of her that you can start to see the colors she is starting to have on the inside of her arms...

two days ago I had my first adult acanthops. I have 3 others all living in the same 12x12 net cage with out issue.

I just love the wings on this guy. it's like a ball gown that looks like a dried up leaf...
