She's a stunner...and HUGE! Is she a new adoptee? How long did her previous owners have her? She seems so mellow she must be quite used to being handled.

She's gorgeous! I also got my jumbo from a pet store two years ago. He wasn't a jumbo when I purchased him, but has since gotten to that size in two molts. His BP is an inch long!

I thought that Jumbos started at 1 1/2 inch on the BP? The one Jumbo I had that passed from PPs had a claw that was two inches long and an inch thick. His SP was an inch and a quarter long.

I'll have to measure it again, but it's definetly an inch or larger. He's in this very large, heavy black murex and fills the entire shell up! I should try to post pictures tonight. I keep meaning to, anyway
