[kimo]

I am courious how big are adult males of Stenodactylus petrii in comparison to females? I got one WC pair and female is maybe 3 times bigger...she is adult for sure, but is he? He has about 3.5-4cm long body,without tail...

Thanks!

I can obviously see the bulges on male and females lacks them. I know that there is huge difference, but I am just courious about males adult size...

The difference in my pair is huge. My female looks like she could eat him They are roughly the same length, but she's much heavier. It's not a one eat one not thing because I've watched both of them eat.

These are pics of my two petrii when I first got them back in June.

female? There are bulges present albeit not the same size as the smaller male.

This little guy is definitely a boy. He has huge bulges.

I have had my pair for about three years. The female is quite a bit larger than the male. They are about the same length, but in terms of mass (girth) she dwarfs him, so much so that despite numerous attempts over the years to breed, he has been unsuccessful because she is to strong for him.
