I have recently acquired two male and one female carinatas. They are unusually marked with stripes rather than zig-zagging and one of the males is white. They are wild caught. I've never bred before, but I'm thinking about it with these guys, however the female is still small and they are all rather skinny at this time, although feeding like champs since I got them (one of the males only feeds on geckos). I have emailed Jerry privately, but am open to other input on how to go about putting weight on everyone. They are all 2 feet . I have thought about treating them prophylactically with Panacur and Flagyl just in case internal parasites are their problem.

Anyone have any other ideas on feeding regimens for these guys?

thanks,
Shelley
