Balaptica Dubia Moulted.

I didn't know that Dubia roach will also moult until I found this 10 minutes ago in my Dubia roach enclosure.


1) A freshly moulted Dubia roach !


2) The dorsal view. Notice the pale coloration-sign of a moult.


3) The ventral view. Hard to keep it lying flat for picture session though.


4) The old exoskeleton. Notice the vertical crack where the newly formed roach breaked through.


5) The underside of the exoskeleton.

Another lesson well-learned.
