I've always loved these guys. The changes in color they go through from one molt to the next is always interesting to observe.
I've never gotten the chance to breed these guys since I always seem to be left with all males or females.

I know, every instar is so different from the last, so great to photograph!

Yeah, that seems to happen a lot ... 1 male and 5 females!

Here's a shallow focus stack of the head, taken at sub-adult.
