Thanks Ted! Yes, I hope as well. The male is young, he is only about 3 inches long tops... I am thinking 7 to 10 months old.

Mike Martin has a good care guide on them, with tons of useful information. Pretty accurate and he has had great success with them...

Thanks... yes, I use to own a photography business, and still have studio lights and a nice little Nikon D200. Those shots where with a 50mm Nikkor lens and a couple of extension tubes for macro. Some shots where with studio strobes, and the ones in the plants are with a speed flash.

Lookin' good Silas. Put me down for hatchlings when you get 'em. I'm in no hurry, and you're a ways off, so the timing seems good to me.
