Zambi doing well after giving birth last month

PHEve Oct 25, 2005 04:39 PM

To the 6 little guys who were born dead and alot of slugs also.

She's actually looking like shes pregnant again. I have read they only mate once a year but this pair is always together they even sleep on the same branch or a few inches apart everynight.

Is it possible to be pregnant again/ so soon? She's a cute little thing, I really enjoy her and Zimba her mate.

They are quite friendly, as in they like to eat heheehehe, so they wait for me at the door sometimes of their cage for delivery service, LOL

Zambi, female werneri

Eve,
We have not kept werneri but we have had other live-bearers. It would be amazing if she were gravid again so soon. Have you checked information on AdCham?

Keep us posted....

Possibly retained sperm from the earlier mating?

PHEve Oct 27, 2005 03:09 PM

retain sperm like other lizards? I know my collareds, agama, and some others definely do.

I will have to let you guys know how she makes out. May be she just eats well.
But I know the look now, and she just appears like shes widening again.
I have read that some pairs can not be together, these 2 seem to be quite bonded. Maybe the fact they are together and seem comfortable has something to do with it. ??? Don't know

Well if she is gravid, then the once a year thing will stand no more, heehhehe LOL

Thanks everybody!
