Doug and Dave. Here are some photos of dad (top) and mom (bottom). I could probably find some of the little ones hatching too. Glad to hear to are getting a few Dave. I know you will take good care of them.

Thanks Joe. they are both great. As I recall, the father was not confirmed, just a male you found in the same area as the gravid female? Very nice animals.

Ahh, good memory Dave. That is true, not confirmed. He told me he did it though! Ha ha.

I really like that male, it would be nice if he was the father but who really knows.

Yeah Dave, the male is real nice and I have not seen too many with his coloration. Doug, they were in fact found under the same 8 foot long section of fence plank. 6" wide! They were found three weeks apart though. You can bet there will be some pieces of slate and tin back there this year. I have a mulch pile right next to the board and think she was going to lay eggs there and he was hanging out waiting for seconds.
