Our orchid female molted into an L7 today and she looks amazing.
It keeps surprising us how much bigger they are after a molt.

I have never seen this species before, so glad I looked at this thread now The shade of pink is so pretty. Does the shade change/fade/intensify with growth?

When adult they aren't very pink anymore.
The male just molted into adult today.

Poor guy! Do you plan on breeding them? I'm pretty sure the females die as well after egg deposition, right?

What's the maximum life span if not bred/eaten?
