I'm so excited! I finally found an adult female mali for Ra. I bought her at Port Credit Pet Center today. She is in fabulous condition, nice fat back legs and a huge tail! She comes from a reputable chemelon breeder in the area so her origins are traceable (I think he needed more room for his chams so he sold his uros) She is either CB or LTC. She is definitely a female because she laid 4 viable eggs last year. Not only is she a male-mimic female, she is currently gravid as well!
I am very pleased with how well she is doing. She's basking already. I am doing my very best to minimize stress, and I will provide her with a nesting box tomorrow.
Here she is, not the best pic but I was glad she doesn't mind the camera very much.
Her name is Isis.

Congrats on Isis. Ra should also be happy when they meet. You must keep us posted for any new happenings.

Eating and she's "done her business". I think her stress level is ok.

Sounds great!
If she's already eating and pooping, just leave her alone for a bit and you'll have absolutley no problems with stress.

I'm very happy for you. How big of an enclosure are you planning on building (or buying) for the two of them?

Oh, good for you, Sunfox!!! That's fantastic! I'm so happy for you and for Ra!
