just found a male (i believe) today (2nd pic) also the suspected female is missing a leg(wasnt me) had the other for almost a week now. reason being i hear the male has thick fuzzy mouth thingies (palpi?, and more contrasting colors, i'll need better images to confirm) and the females are less prominent mouth feelers, believe it has something to do with mating, pretty nice how they both sorta fell in my lap, one was on the backdoor curtain, the other on the frontdoor window. might try breeding them. currently both are in identical terrariums touching each other (32oz deli cups with coconut coir+rock+wooden skewer) so i plan to fatten them up, later to put them together see what happens. ;)

omfg i found a great source of coconut coir bricks a hydroponics store near me sells em for like 3$ a brick whereas the petstore sells "bed a beast" at 7$ :p gouging much?

One will kill the other eventually if you put them in the same cage. I wouldn't suggest it.

If you want an ID take a picture from the top/head on
