Well Lilly is Not a Lilly S/He is in fact as I orriginally named him....A Wyatt. So now its Wyatt on Sophie :main_rolleyes:

Now I get to buy another tank on Payday...Which really doesnt bother me much I just wasnt expecting this. I dont want to breed...Way Way to busy and inexperienced for all that.
I guess yall were right when you pin pointed the pre-anal bulges....I didnt notice the triangle of pores till I looked really hard and put him in the light.

Also another question just how will his tail look when its finally grown back in...I know it will never be fully restored but does anyone have pics of a fully regenerated tail?

When I first got him it looked like a crazy second head but now its getting longer and looking more like a chubby tail.

I made a humid hide tonight because theyre paleing out in color. I took a ziplock container and cut a hold and wrapped peaked moss in a paper towel and sprayed it libberally and placed it in the humid hide. Do you think that will be sufficient? and how will I know when they are going to shed and if they have? Ive had them for about a month and theyve grown a bit without shedding.

What a surprise! :) There was just a post with a picture of a regenerated tail. Here is the link http://www.geckoforums.net/showthread.php?t=6667. It may not look like this at all though. I have seen pics of regenerated tails that you wouldn't even tell were regenerated. Others look normal but have a more smoothed-looking texture (kinda hard to explain).
That is perfectly fine for a humid hide. When they are about to shed, they get a milky-white color, or a chalky color. If you see when they start, they may or may not even use the humid hide, but just let them do their thing. You will notice when it is done shedding because the normal colors will be visible again. At this point, make sure you check everything (nose, toes, tail) for any unshed skin. They may need a little help and that must come off.
