    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have a problem... I have an albino that is 4-5 weeks old, and I just got a baby aberant that is about 2 weeks old... I'm guessing 2 weeks old because he/she hasn't shed yet :D .

I put the 2 week old with the 4 week old and my 4 week old albino nipped at the little one on the head :angry: ... I left them because I thought that maybe he/she was asserting her dominance... They seemed okay then about five minutes later she nipped again, this time at the base of the tail :hot: ... twice! I was terrified for the little one so I took him/her out and put her in another tank :unhappy: .

I though that because they are both young that I wouldn't have any problems with keeping them together. When I got the albino it was the same size as the little guy, and it's been eating dusted crickets, mealworms, and waxworms like crazy and has put on some weight, and now looks huge next to the little guy, but it's only 4-5 weeks old. I also have a Hypo-Tangerine female that is about 4 months old... I need to know will I EVER be able to put any of them together without them fighting... being that there is such a difference in sizes :uhh: .

Sorry for the long post.
 
This is quite common among youngins this is why most breeders house them individually...they will often nip each other and it can result in loss of toes or tails...this nipping will also most likely force the younger not to eat because of the dominance...so its a good idea to keep them seperatly till they get a little older
 
Thanks B.

I guess I'll try again in a couple of months... Hopefully they won't both be males because that would be a big problem LOL
