Diana. Are they getting anysize to them? If you remember I had 2 smaller ones and the 2 larger ones Kamiel picked up for me in Germany. Well the 2 smaller ones are catching up to the adults in size. I think it is 1.3 now as there is no signs of any aggression in the group so far. The large male is always displaying in the enclosure. He is really impresive. I had the large female lay a clutch of 12 eggs but they were infertile.

Hi Tom,

I think I have 1.3 also, it's really difficult now to see if that is true. I think they are not all adults, they are still growing and changing.
The SVL of the biggest one is 16 cm.
Are yours also blue sometimes ? I think when they are feeling well they turn to blue.

at times. You can kind of see it in this photo but it looks a lot bluer in person.

I know, they are really more blue, but when I make a picture you can't see it. Strange

This is another one, I think the male

The spines are perfect and from the size of them I would agree on a male. He is nice!
