First T

Hey everyone I got my first T last week and thought I would share a picture of it with you.
It is a Cylosternum Facsiatum about 2.5" across.
If anyone could tell me the proper way to measure a T it would be appreciated.
Thanks

Gorgeous!! Make sure to keep her humid. It's amazing how pink they are in the "hair" so to speak.

Legspan is measured from leg I on one side, to leg IV on the opposite side. It's a diagonal measurement.
