Gianniz, at 7cm your zebras will be sexually mature and will be ready to breed providing you have both sexes.

Shell, that's about the size they start to sex out at. Nice to see you've been paying attention :D .

Shell231,

Just as it is polite not to ask a girl her age, so it is with asking a guy how many zebras he has !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just in case his wife finds out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But you never know, Adam might surprise us all !!!!!

Ask nicely, no sexual favours required, and I may just let you know. Until then we will have none of that Men vs Women stuff here because you'll lose everytime. Anyway women are walk overs all you have to do is catch them at the right time of the month :lol: :lol: . A man who can't pull the wool over his Mrs eyes is just not trying hard enough :mrgreen: .
