This is the pair I've chosen to breed of them from batch one,its Mundae the female and I believe this guy was blackie,he lightened a lot as adult. We will start trying to breed this coming week on,more pics to follow,I've been shooting them a lot as never had this species before and got super lucky with how this female looks....

Also I currently have no extra females,but I have an extra adult male if someone can buy him,I don't really even need more than one for her but I'm keeping 2 of batch one to be safe

Thanxx,I'm wondering if the red central lighting I have in my room is how we get nice colors sometimes,or the colors of the backgrounds and lids,I have no idea really though

I would suggest you keep two males, in case your male gets eaten or just randomly drop dead. I can't tell you how many times I've only had one male, something bad happens to him, and I can't find another male.

 
If I may,

I second synensispsyched's opinion. Don't risk it :) . Breeding is safer with a higher ratio of males.

Oh i am thats why I am keeping 2 males for her alone,the other I don't need though,I will be selling almost w.e I get from her as I have another generation almost adult now as well lol

 
Dang! Amazing pictures. What camera and background do you use? I love the subtle reflection.
Thanxx, this is just the shiney side of the poster paper you can buy from a dollar store or walmart,cut down to fit inside this giant soft box I bought for them,I'm shooting with a really old Nikon D90,trying to get a new camera but just never get close money wise
