I still have my old old old female, she doing great, other then that, I have no idea what the status of perenties are in this country. So there is really not to much to say. Cheers

If I had to guess, and I am guessing, maybe 13 or so. And I have no reason to know how viable she is. She cycles at least once a year and absorbs her ovum. She has learned to do that well, the first four or fives times she did that, it was hard on her. Now, puff up and then puff down. Cheers
