Your obviously joking Steve, but even if you weren't I wouldn't want to part with her now! - Stuart has the right idea - get yourself a nice pure girl!

Just noticed your reply.. pretty big girl. I have a youngster very similar looking. I am pretty torn now what to get as a boyfriend for her. Initially I was going for a pure Diamond male but I am thinking I will probably get a pure pair of Diamonds next year.

I like the look of the Precision Reptiles' Diamond x Jag x Jungles.. stunning yellow http://precisionreptiles.com/pic/DJJ2nd_18m.jpg so Possibly a Jag or a Jungle x Jag male. With these Jags though as babies you cant really tell how yella they will be ... Maybe another Diamond x Jag, I do love the look of the Diamond Jags, intense black and yellow netting.

Is your male a Diamond x Jag too? got a photo of him?
By the photo, taken outside, your female looks good natured. My girl is really calm and tame, I have always read as youngsters they can be pretty snappy... thankfully not Smile

Cheers
Don

Donski,

My male is the brother of my female so yes DxJ - I will take some updated pics soon and post them.

As for temperament I think there all individuals. When I got my pair they were both the same age and size, the female has never attempted to bite or anything else and the male was an absolute pyscho for probably 3 weeks, swinging his head from side to side and repeatedly biting and musking every time I got him out. After the initial few weeks with regular handling he soon calmed down.

If I were you I'd go with another 50% or the pure diamonds, if you go with the diamonds you can make pures and 75%'ers, but that's just what I would do!
