I finally got a male!

He's gorgous and so sweet. He was sold to me as an albino although he looked much different than the other albinos in the store. His head is much larger than any of my girls' and he is so tame. I walked around the store with him on my shoulder while I got my crickets and stuff and I fell in love. Here is a closeup head shot.



And here he is with two of my girls.

They have been getting along great so far. Everyone is eating like hogs as usual. The only behavioral changes so far is that they lick the new guy and sometimes dance in front of him which is something my girls have never really done before.

Not only are all three gorgeous, more importantly they are all very healthy looking critters.

And now here's the part where I say, "You should have quaranteened the new one for a while to be sure of......." Sorry, I'm a worrier! lol

What a gorgeous guy! Girls are looking good too - lol sounds like they were doing a mating dance for him

LOL and looks like Jay beat me to the quarantine thing! Also, will you have a separate enclosure for him? - i simply ask because once they're together they will mate continuously and the females can lose a lot of weight and not have time to put it back on. Also males tend to go off food while breeding so you might find him losing weight too.

Good luck with them, i hope they all produce some lovely babies. He really is a stunner.. i am very jealous!
