have a question

[pammy]

Hi everyone. My question is I got 2 female (that is what the seller told us) pygmy chams on May 3rd. Yesterday one of them laid eggs. Today one of them was on a branch and the other one was just crawling on a different branch. Anyway, the other crawled to where the other one and got on her back. She was on her for a few minutes. I have never seen that before. What does that mean? Pam

It means the seller was likely wrong and the eggs will probably be fertile.

Here is more good info on Pygmies from the Resources section of the forum

If they are brother and sister then they should be separated.

You can tell the sex of Pygmies by the length of their tails.

Thank you, Lovereps for the info.

Lovereps, well yesterday the one on top of the other female was the one that laid eggs yesterday and the day before so she is female. She is also smaller in size than the other one.

Well, at least you now have a definitive sexing of both!
Can't say I've ever seen a male cham lay eggs
