Hi guys! 

I have just had one hatchling from this species out of know here from my female, who has never had contact with a male. I have never even owned a male of this species. It appears to be healthy and I'm amazed. I didn't think that this species could reproduce in this way. Here are some photos. I would ask if anyone has had a similar experience?

Interesting…

I’ve heard of this in a few random species, usually they don’t live long but give it a shot and try to raise it. I’m curious if it makes it to adult if it will be parthenogenic as well.

 
Sorry! I meant parthenogenic. Never seen it in this species though
