Albino male. Bristles growing up the nose is a dead give away. Females only ever (rarely) get a couple bristles around the lip.

Surely a male albino.
Just wait a few more moths to see those bristles grow enormously.

I agree in a few more months when his bristles have developed a bit more he should be one stunning male.

yeah, male.

He does seem quite large though so I would suggest that he is a sub-dominant male. this can often happen where a younger male grows up around a larger, more dominat male and as a result it doesnt develop its bristles much. take the other male out for a few weeks and watch him bloom!

he/she is around 3-3.5"

its in with another smaller albino one around 2-3" and i thought they where a pair as the other one is a male and has far more and bigger bristles, thats why i thought this was a female but think i will try that doug.

i will try and get pics of the smaller male to compare.

He has small bristles because he is the sub male and the other one is the dominant one.That is why I asked how big he was as i thought that may be the case.As Doug said split them up and he will come into his own.Would be good to see pics of him in a months time to see how he is developing Smile
