tmh0324,

2,4,7,8 big chance as the female! :)

However, seems you need to condition them for few good months!

BTW, congrats that u get such nice group! :D

Thank you guys sooooo much! :luw:

Yes, No.5 is a little bit snubnose...but I just take a chance since it looks like a "she" when I saw her...so...

I know some of them are still skinny and it is worth to take time to watch for. :roll:

Aside to YSL,
Yeah...nice group=big money :cry:
Now, my lunch budget is USD$2 a day. :wounded:

Get them fattened up and ready for breeding, maybe a few eggs will come your way and then splash out on $2.50 for lunch :lol:

This sounds like a good idea...but I guess it takes up to 6 months to see them breeding...I think I need to find a "lunch sponsor" first...
how about the god-father of my first zebies~ :roll:

anyone? :lol:
