Default Uroplatus Guentheri picture... Couple??

I have bought 4 small animals 2 months ago and they grow rather quickly!!

I don't know if I have couples but here's a picture of 2 animals that has been together since I've had them...

Can you already see if it's a couple or not?? I've noticed that one of them has a bigger head then the other...

Any help??

Thanxx...

Uroplatus guentheri is probably the easiest kind of all. Photos in high solution of the genital range would be interesting. How old are they?

Nice animals. As far as i can see on the picture they are still too small to sex. Males have really huge hemipenis-pockets.

You give them one good spray at night, which should dry out during the day, as they come from more arid areas of madagascar with less vegetation and so less humidity. an ideal day time temp is 26 C. i haven't read too much about Henkeli as I don't keep them presently but I believe that they have similar conditions temp

One may not forget that the animals are settled at the proximity to the coast. A moderate humidity always is.

A waterdish is neccassary. Use lime products and vitamin d3 for juveniles and females in appropriate DOSAGE.


Resuming:
New Uroplatus Geuntheri!!!

dat temperature 23-26 celsius and a night time drop to 15-16 degrees celsius is fine. they are a bit to smal to sex. the male develop huge hemipenal bulges.
