So once a month Nitro has a pamper day, which means I check his weight and measurements, he has a shell shine and a good brush with a soft baby toothbrush and a general check. I never pet him, I treat him as a wild creature that shares my space. Today though, I had him on the sofa after weighing...
Hi! Nitro is 4 now I think. I did have a hatch date date but I didn't make a note of it, I wish I had now! So, in regards to the marbling, when he was a hatchling he had barely any at all, then it just went crazy, it looked way more prominent when he had really light growth lines in his first...
I was leaning towards male as well, but then I've always used the male pronouns for him anyway. There doesn't seem to be any concavity yet, I'll keep an eye on it!
I'm in the UK and I use pothos. I also made a wire bridge for it to grow over. Boston fern is good too, and I've never seen Nitro eating it so mine has grown really well.
