Hi, I have my females in one habitat and the males in another.

I should have taken a picture, but cleaned it out before I thought to.

One of the females left orange waxy looking blobs in the cage. I'm wondering if perhaps that it could have been a miscarriage? There were about 5 or 6 and they were a little bigger than the tip of a Qtip. Medium orange in color and waxy looking in texture.

Would appreciate any insight.

Thanks!!

Sounds like 'jelly beans'. Not a miscarriage, rather unfertilised eggs.

My t. couchii dropped a few of those this summer too. Had gone off feed for a couple/few weeks prior. Eating well now.

Hi James and Loren, thank you so much! The one who I think produced those 'jelly beans' actually wasn't eating as she normally would both before and after.

That sets my mind at ease.

Thank you again. :) :)
