I just opened the box and was greeted by three very curios Creobroter Pictipennis from Mike. Yay for new species!!

These little guys are really active! Very curious, I've had them home a few hours getting temporary homes ready and two of them already climbed up a dusty lamp and took a tumble. They jumped right back up and started climbing again. And what's with that funny little butt wiggle? Hehe

They keep the butt wiggle for a while :p mine still does it and she just molted to L5

 
I just love the Creo dance! :wub:

They do the butt wiggle until wings cover their abdomens.

I noticed that adult females do an interesting behavior with their forelegs and wings, I think that they are taunting eachother with all that strutting. :tt2:
