    Default Are these true Giants?

    Im looking into getting some Pixies and i was wondering if anyone can help me and tell me if these are true giants or just dwarfs. I know plenty of people that bought giants and got dwarfs instead and i dont wanna be part of that group. If you guys could help i would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance

    The first one looks like a dwarf to me. Hard to tell for the next two. (I am by no means an expert though.)

    They all look like giants to me although could tell easier with better pics, go look at the care sheet and you will see giants are usually green with 3 lines while dwarfs are more brown

    three lime green stripes is the norm with adsperus edulis have one, not lime green either but even the adspersus vary slightly in colour,

    All three are P. adspersus. # lime stripes not the garantie of P. adspersus because the classic edulis specy has also as a baby 3 lime stripes.

    But these are deffently p. adspersus, you can see it on the eyes.

    Yes Edulis too has three stripes. The old rule of the three line adspersus, one line edulis has been debunked.

    i have not seen alot of edulis but the ones i have seen they had the prominant stripe down the dorsal, and the stripes are not lime green like the adspersus but i know nothing is set in concrete,
