    I'm pretty happy right now
    they look nice together, don't you think?

    Re: shacking up

    I don't know about the red
    it'd be nice to have some babies with that
    and also Sammy's greenish tones - I'd love to see those pop up in her babies
    Sammy is het melanistic from a melanistic bred to a double het snow-66% possible
    het snow/albino
    Boyfriend, her mate is decended from a het leucistic (flame x leucistic) being bred to a double het melanistic x erythristic cross
    I suspect I'll end up with a variety of normals and there's a small remote chance of perhaps a melanistic baby

    Re: shacking up

    Are they hooked up, or is the male just courting? It's normal either way.

    It's hard to see because they're so intertwined
    he's got spasms running through him
    yesterday it seemed more rhythmic though
    looking at this photo I just took, I think they're not hooked up


    I really must get new glasses

    Re: shacking up

    Something like this?

    YouTube - Parietalis couple getting friendly

    That's the male trying to get the female in the mood. They aren't really mating. When you see the female dragging the male around the terrarium, then you know it's happening for real.
