thanks for the replies! she is a concinnus, yes? may be a stupid question, but the bold stripes on her sides confuse me. they are LTC and i was told they came from oregon. like i said, the male looks just like her, so maybe they're just dimorphic?

easterngirl, that's the plan! good variety of diet. as far as bedding, i'll probably put a bottom layer of newspaper and then add some carefresh on top for them to crawl around in. thanks for the advice!
