Both of the females should be nearing the 18-month mark by the end of 2004. I got them April of this year, and they had already laid a clutch of infertiles in december 2004. The previous owner said they were around 9 months. Yes, i know, 9 months is usually a bit early for a first clutch but this guy didn't know much about how to keep them. They were both in the same 18x24x36 screen cage their whole lives. They now live in two seperate 2x2x4' enclosures, all screen.
I think the timing was just bad, because I've shows the female to the male before and she got very very pretty robin's egg blue with some soft yellow spots and slowly walked in the opposite direction of the male. One observation I made when I did that, was that her blue dots had a ring around the edge of them that were a lighter blue, very pretty!
