    I originally just checked the tail, and a HUGE difference could be seen between the male and the females[the 3 curled up]...I'm going to wait a bit until they get bigger and pop or probe them...[These 4 will all be holdbacks, going to a melanistic locale soon to find a male]

    Cute little ones...

    Are you keeping them on gravel?? if so that's a bad idea... Take a look at our Care sheet... It lists safe substrates to use along with lots of other useful information!

    The gravel was just for the pictures... They are kept on papertowels right now which will be switched to bark once they get older...
