Yes, not looking good is he/she? Is it housed alone or with others? If with others, try housing it alone, as quick as you can. Though tbh, it could be a number of things. That's the trouble with WC animals. But if it was feeding, it could be stress due to intimidation from tank mates. Seen this...

Fantastic mate, congratulations. Great pics too... love pic number 2 & 4 is fav. :D

Definitely looks gravid to me.

Yep try the Devils ivy (pothos)... even i can't kill that. :D And nice big leaves for some shade & for water to collect on when misting.

Personally i'm not a fan of all mesh enclosures. Here in the uk, i struggle with temps & humidity control using them. If it were mine, i would cover the back & sides with thin polycarbonate panels (cut from a sheet) leaving just the mesh front & roof. Fix to either the frame of the reptibreeze...

WOW!! Just read the whole thread. Great pics of some fantastic species.

Yep! Agree. kmisher, the females tail is just a little stub compared to a males & easy to tell apart when you have both sexes to compare with.

Ha ha! Shame your not near me. I could bet you, you couldn't get my male hoehnelii to take either. :D Lol!! I'd be quids in.

Four days??? Give the animal time to settle, all you'll do is stress it & make it scared of you. Wait until it is comfortable in your presence & will feed in front of you. Then you can try offering food by hand. I have found using tongs first, then your fingers/hand. Also hold the food further...

Hi. Do you know the history of your animal? I have a male hoehnelii that was the last one to be born, so the runt of the litter. When born he was (according to the breeder) at least half the size of the others. He is a terrible eater, probably eats two medium sized crickets every other day &...

I use exo's & cover the back & sides with either cork bark panels (expensive, but looks great) or coco panels. Not only does this stop reflection, but the animal can climb on them & you can grow plants up them too.

I would have thought it would be very stressful for them... even really tame ones. Most don't even appreciate direct spraying, with a fine spray. Let alone standing directly in water.

Yeah i'd say two males as well, based on the dorsal crest & tail length/thickness. Pic two is 100% male. I personally have not had any success keeping them in pairs or trios. But many people have. I much prefer to keep them individually & introduce them for breeding. Much as you would for...

Yeah i'd say two males as well, based on the dorsal crest & tail length/thickness. I personally have not had any success keeping them in pairs or trios. But many people have. I much prefer to keep them individually & introduce them for breeding. Much as you would for other, larger species.

Anyone give me a positive id on this pygmy please?

Could be a cross of different locales

Same here... really love the true, green Nosey Be's, so much more than the designer blue ones :(. Really miss my big male, Ozzy (named after Ozzy Osbourne :D).

No goodness in it, ie vitamins. It's mostly made up of water.

That's great! Thanks Dave, Nick. Was thinking of putting a little Repashy bug burger in, what do you reckon?

Thanks mate.
