Hi,

Nice picture, the only thing I wonder is why she is so dark round her eyes. Is this due to the picture? This looksa little strange.

They really stay beautiful animals.

With my last 2 litters I only had 2 males and 16 females. I hope my next litter will have males again so I can keep some.

Steven,

My adults all have blue/purple eye turrets. The other clutch mates I have still are also showing this darkening of the eye turret starting at the base. I suspect it is just a color development thing.

Humph, my female just gives me the 'stink' eye.

Acutally she is a pretty teal color and I should get some photos this weekend of her. Typical pose I see " kneel before me peon!"

Chris when is the next batch!

Chris when is the next batch!

My other female is quite fat and I'm expecting her to have a clutch any time. This female has never been interested in the males since I got her so I had suspected she had bred before I got her (either at the exporter's or importer's facility where they are kept in groups). I got her around the 22nd of May and with a 5 month gestation period, that would put her very close!

She looks great, Todd!!! Was glad to hear she and the montium seem to be settling in.

Very nice Todd. Man you are getting one heck of a collection together. I would love to have this species. Hopefully with any luck finances will allow it next time Chris has some.

Interesting, I have had a lot of baby's of the Kenia hoehnelii's. But I never saw this eye coloration. Can you keep us posted about their growith I'm curious how their colors develop.

I will most definitely keep everyone updated on my specimen. I have never worked with this species before so the eye color to me is not out of the ordinary, however she is generally more of a teal color. I liked the photo above because of the pinkish accents.

See ya,

Todd
