Whiptails. Sexing and compatibility
Posted: 03 Apr 2023, 07:37
I am getting some spoonface whiptails and am wondering if anyone who keeps them might be able to show me a picture of the underside of a male and female so I can see the difference. These should be old enough to sex and they will let me pick which ones I want, would like to see an example to be sure I can tell.
My second question is how peaceful are they in your experience? I have some young Pseudohemiodon apithanos and even adult males are incredibly peaceful and can be housed with other bottom dwellers without picking a fight. I am wondering if, at least while both species are young they would be fine housed together provided the footprint of the tank is big enough to not crowd them.
I would be splitting them up when they get a little older but while they are small enough to be in there comfortably (the Columbian chameleons are around 3” the spoon face around 5”) I would just as soon let them share.
