The guy my boyfriend got our little baby Riddle from called us last night as asked if we wanted a bigger one. He has like 12 i guess and just having trouble keeping up with them all. So we went and picked up another one. She was terrified last night but this morning she'll let me touch her and pick her up a little. He told me he thought she was a female but wasn't sure. Of course my camera was broken so i tried to get some with my cell phone. If they're not theyre not good enough let me know and I'll borrow my friends. The ones i took with my camera (before it crapped out on me) were through the glass so they're pretty bad too sorry!

This is the little guy (or girl?)

Here's just some other pictures of her. I've been calling her Cabana, no reason, just kinda liked the name. I realize the oatmeal box is kind of cheap looking but i wasnt expecting to get her so i didn't buy her a nice hide yet. She doesnt like the box she just goes under it lol.

Just wanted to add that no they're not in the same tank! The baby is in a smaller plastic box/tub thing until he grows big enough to live with the big one. Unless they're separate genders in which case I'll buy a second tank for the little one.

From what you posted I would lean towards female.
You've got the right idea on what to show. A better photo would be much more helpful.:)

Ok lemme see what i can get. The little one is gone, as in i have no idea where it went or how it got out. The screen was duct taped onto the tub (all around no gaps), no holes in the screen, and no holes in the tub. Hopefully she makes it outside without the cats finding her first :-\. Let me see if i can get better pictures of the big one for you!
