leptosoma has no colour

Post by flourman »

Got them about 3 months ago, 3 of 'em, and the biggest one's over 4 inches now, still no colour though. Reckon I might've just got lucky with 3 females or does it take a bit longer for the colour to kick in?

Typically, colour starts showing on the males around 3 inches, I'd expect to see some change by now if they were males, but since you've got none, it's possible you might have got all females.

Thanks for the confirmation flinta, looks like I've got three females on my hands.
