Never said it was easy....maybe for you 10 males later ;) .....I think you know the answer on the last comment :embarrassed:
Ha, since i dont own an arboreal T and only 2 OW's neither are pokies. so
i think 10 if not more would be correct ;)

Great video rob, even if it was kinda like watching a rocky movie with no fight at the end. All kidding aside thanks for the video and best of luck when you finally attempt to breed them.

On a semi-related note I got 2 versicolor slings from Jamie last month, usps first misshiped, then destroy'd the box. The next day after the misship only 60miles away I got a large padded envelope with the large vial and the two sling straws inside delivered with an apology note from the post office. When I inquired to the post office what had happened the response was 'sometimes things get bumped'. Both versi's were alive and well. But both flew out of threre straws the second fresh air hit them. None tried to hide in my mouth though.

Rob, I didn't get to watch the whole vid because this computer won't play them w/o overheating. I don't know if you said in the vid or not but how big is the male?

Gorgeous animal. I really love their color, but I will never buy them for the price they're at. Thanks for the pics.
