Vent Picture (high res)

These are my two new vents. You can immediately tell which one is the female (look for the fatty). If you look very closely at the male, he is missing the bottom part of one of his legs. He is amazing though, since he gets around perfectly (hopping from brom to brom), hunts, and will hopefully start breeding soon (he has been chasing the female around ). These little thumbs are amazing and mesmerizing!

The breeder and I have no clue. There was no sign of injury when he got here and the breeder chose him by looking for the most active male (he is amazingly active). So, it may have happened a very long time ago. I couldn't care less; I think its kinda cool how he adapated. My girlfriend named him gimpy.
