Hi
do most keepers keep their pairs together all year round or separate the males?
i have just bought a pair and they are in great health.i was setting up the enclosure so had to remove for replanting and removed the male first.as soon as i removed the male the female started to armwave.they are happily settled back in their new planted enclosure.

I do have to seperate mine, I think my female would probably lay herself to death if I didnt. Congrats on your pair!

thanks for the reply.i will separate the male and leave her in the enclosure as she is gravid again.
i adore these little lizards but i am a first timer to keeping the species.

Well congrats! As soon as I can find my camera cord I'll post a p my fic, my female lays her eggs in neat little rows in a piece of bamboo every time. There's 8 in there right now, I think she had a military background. Good luck!

pics would be great .do you cover the eggs or leave them to hatch into adult enclosure.?

spot the babies .they hatched in the parents viv and i removed them to their own viv after they shed.

LOL I love the little guy popping his head around the flower!
Sorry my camera cord is still MIA, but yes, I keep them in the enclosure. I cover the opening of the bamboo tube with saran wrap, which I prick some needle holes in, and then remove this whenever my female looks like she's about ready to lay.
Congrats on the babies!
