[QUOTE="hysteresis, post: 342153, member: 11064"] I think that with long-lived genera like Deroplatys, the trick is to keep them mechanically intact. Line their enclosures only in the soft shelf liner, and don't handle them, unless they climb willingly on to your hand. I keep hearing their tarsi get broken and they have troubles getting around otherwise. Physical injury can lead to infection, etc. My desiccata female should have a long way to go, as she's 15 months since hatch. Shes a beaut and still producing fertile ooths. [/QUOTE]
