Viv looks great mate,and those Kimberlys ROCK

[James]

I really like kimberleys and youve got a great group. nice looking viv aswell good luck with them in the future and keep us posted.

[Mike]

Nice viv and nice Kimberlys. Is there any size diffrence in the group? My biggest one turned out to be the female. Altought now it's smaller than the male. In my 0.0.4 group only one had a bit of problem with shedding and that was the female. Does your female have any problem? With problem I mean taking longer time than normal to shed. I talked to a guy from Germany having the same problem with his females shedding.
Kind regards!
Mike

Hi Mike, It would be nice if my smaller one was a male and the other two female, but i believe the smallest to be the female?, she is the shyest of the group and will disappear quickly if any of the others approach to fast.
She is the one to watch though as she is much more inquisitive.
This is the one that is shedding at the moment, i dont think she is having a difficult time with it? but this is the first time since i've had them that i've seen any in slough? (although considering there age i would expect they still have, possibly a couple times, must have been quick(never found any skin either, (there certainly growing well though?))
I haven't seen her for 24 hours so i will take a look tomorrow, i have some humidity in the base of the tank, from the top soil, so this might aid her if she is having a few probs cheers

how well do the males get on exactly ?

or were they raised together ?

[Bohan]

Really well Silas, they were raise together and seem very tolerant of each other. The female is equally treated but abit more skittish with the two males close to her. She is the most tame of the 3 with me

is the female related ?
i hope not
inbreeding Will be the downfall of herpetology !

all the best of luck anyway

Well despite losing one a fair few months ago, a female as it turned out, my despondancy with these two (believed i had two same sex individuals and i so wanted to breed them, i like breeding ) has been lifted just recently.
For the last week or so i have witnessed some breeding behaviour (im still unsure if i have both sexes) but both have perked up in the last week or so (my poss female, the largest one, has put on so much weight) and is very often pursued caught and attempted to mate with by the smaller, slighter poss male?
Its very fast and by the time i've found the camera, turned it on, angled it so as to bounce the flash reflexion out of the shot, they have stopped or rather she? has left him behind, so i have no photos but it happens several times a day, usually the morning, no aggression but the male clings on for England. Still not seen any copulation though
I do have a few photos of them recently as they have been more obviously out and about:
