My melleri

[Jimturner]

Allright here they are, in order - Zipo, smelly Plinko and... well I dont have a name for it yet.. still working on the free range

 

[Monkeykungphu]

Man, you're in Meller City!!! Does Plinko really smell?!?!

Good looking chams!

 

[draetish]

They're all youngsters and look great. I thought you were getting adults, lucky you!

 

[Texas Panther Man]

Nice group you have there. Do you have plans on breeding them some day?

 

[Jimturner]

Zipo and the newby are youngsters but smelly Plinko is HUGE, gotta be close to two feet! And yes Plinko smells, I posted about this yesterday: Smelly Melleri?!? Initially I thought it was the ratty reptarium Plinko arrived in, so I chucked that away. The smell lingered on, Gesang suggested that the smell is related to glands in the corners of their mouths that produce a smelly waxy gunk, particularly in large adults. I still think they are cool even if they smell

 

[Miss Lily]

They are all beautiful (regardless of smell!)! They just look so big and gentle

 

[jumpingspider66]

They have colorful stripes on them!I like that!

Me too! that is very interesting to know. I wonder if that could be a scent for a mating call? If so, would that be male or female? Gotta keep us posted when you determine Plinko's gender.

I THINK Plinko is female...reading melleri discovery and studying their photos has lead me to that conclusion. As far as Zipo goes I feel he's male, again based on what I've seen & read. I havent had much time yet with the newby so I have no idea

Thats a good point. Maybe you guys will crack the code on sexing melleris!
