size difference?

[nathanuk]

when i first had my 2 yemens, the male was bigger and was told he would stay bigger. there about 4months old i think and ive had them 1month. now the females huge and the male seems to have stopped growin and is smaller than her, is this ok?

also her veil is gettin big and hes hasnt grown at all

with mine i have noticed quite the opposite, my male is HUGE! and has veil is huge aswell, my female is small and has a smaller veil.

you havnt got them mixed uphave you? the males have a small noble on there back feet.

well are ya sure you didnt get the genders mixed up XD but no its not normal, have you been giving them calcium and all their supplements, cuz stunted growth is a sign of metabolic bone disease

 

[Lizardlover]

yeah, you should check, males have a spur on their heel, and females dont, it is very visible so it shouldnt be hard to tell

Are you still keeping them together? If so, that could be the reason - the female is the dominant one and the male doesn't get enough to eat, drink, or time to bask.

Sepioteuthis is definitely on to something. I would move one out ASAP when you get the new cages.

i'm thinking that your male cham might have some sort of parasite in it's guts or something?

 

[nathanuk]

well ive only just started to set up the new flexis with live plants so where can it come from and how do i find out and cure it?

Get a fecal done for each. The vet will let you know if there is a problem after he examines it.
