Well I thought I'd let you know how my kleinmanni is doing, I got hom from overseas on the 22nd on May. I was very happy to see what go condition she was in. I just recently got her a bigger habitat a 50 gallon tub with tweo micro habitats I made out of small container that have a mixure of peat moss, sand,. and some spagnum moss and a clay pot for hiding in both micro habs.. I think it is working well and I putt water in it about twice a week. She has a corba heat mat right under the basking spot thats one the right hand side of the cage (65 watt) and spend most of her time other than looking for food. After thinking about that I set up another baskign spot on the front left hand side it shouldn't effect the back end the way I have it set up and both of them afte ron a reostat but I will keep a close eye on it since it a 150 watt halogen. I think I'll stop at the store and just get a 100 watt flood. Anyways she is doing fine and if you have any question I'm all ears. Hope yours are doing well get any hatclings see season? Here is a Photo of the set up and her eatting alittle fig.

ahhhhh, gotcha. Your setup is fantastic. Is that a flat white water dish in there? The growth on it looks very nice. It also looks like a female.

Obviously there are no promises but it just looks like a female. at that size it is 1/4 to 1/3 grown. The males are more elongate and it starts showing up about that time. The females are very round.
