By the way, a friend of mine has just bought a pair of albino marcianus, so maybe we're getting those beauties within a few years

Freya? Too bad they're albino, I could consider getting normal ones. But I guess the public wants the most unnatural-looking morphs that can be produced.

[Anthon]

Yes Well, actually I'm not sure which of them she'll try to breed, because she also bought a normal one. Click

That's nice to hear. Now we just have to wait until she sells the normal one.

Well, I got my guy on monday and he ate immediatly. So because of that, he's probably not very stressed, and because he's a captive-bred individual from reliable breeder, I decided to put them together today. Hope you don't kill me. But if there appears any problems (which I doubt), I'll separate them of course.

He's the smaller worm behind.




He has some nice reddish spots, is it because he's het red albino?

Looks nice.

It's a bit hard to see the size difference because of the perspective, but he does look small by comparison.

[Anthon]

Yep he's quite small (but I don't think he's too small) compared to the female even though their age difference is only a one day. But I guess it's only because he's a male. I can take some better comparison-pictures later.

[Stefan-A]

Is the size difference more noticable than this?



To be fair, though, the female was a year younger and the male was pretty big (for a male). The female has grown at least 10cm since then as well.

[Anthon]

Nope, it's mostly like in that pic. You know, skinnier than the female, but not much shorter. And umm.. his head is smaller?

[Stefan-A]

That head size thing didn't apply to my parietalis male, his head was just as big as the female's despite the difference in body size, but I can see that it does apply to my vagrans male.
