    Re: When to separate boys and girls

    I completely understand not wanting to separate. Cee Cee and Seeley need to be separated...they were together because I orginally thought Seeley was a female for quite some time...and then found out he was a male. Now that they have been trying to mate, they need to be in separate enclosures...but they love being together so much, it breaks my heart and I end up letting them stay together a lot. Steve is going to be sending me same sex mates for them soon so that I can finally separate them without feeling guilty about leaving them alone.

    Giving birth at one year old has to be at the extreme end of the sexual maturity spectrum though? But it does provide a warning that a year may be leaving it late.

    I assume you use "mates" in the context of buddies/friends/company, rather than in the biological sense? If it is the latter, I don't know how to break it to you, but you may want to rethink the breeding plans.
