some questions and some pics

chong188 Jul 08, 2003 09:47 AM

until i can figure out how to post multiple pics ill have to keep doing the follow-up way.

but anyways i have some size comparasent(im not a good speller)
pics. tethys the girl (on top) is 19" here and saturn the boy (on bottom) is 25".

from looking at the pics do you guys think she is big enough to live with him shes still deathly afraid of him. what would happen if he attempted to mate with her and she couldnt lay eggs yet?

#2 should i put an egg laying container in tethys cage. if so how do you go about making one?

tethys hates being so close to saturn if you are wondering why she looks so dull in color.

Putting them together will only stress out the little one, I wouldn't house them together. Are you sure the little one is a girl? She seems a little thin for a girl, and her underarms are very yellow, which is more of a male trait. She looks too small to be mating with your guy, she definately needs to gain some weight first.

im pretty sure shes a girl she has absolutly no femoral pores. she is quite afraid of him. she hasnt wanted to eat so much latly but i think thats going to change cuz she ate 32 crickets yesterday. im about 100% shes a girl though. i hope she is at least.

When she is bigger you can house them together, I would wait until she is about 23 inches.
