We got two Caatingas about a month ago. We were really hoping for a pair. Although they were the same size when we got them, one of them (Mycena) almost immediately took off in growth and is about 3/4 of an inch bigger. It seemed pretty likely. Well, the last couple days there have been some discruntled noises coming from "her" enclosure. But it kind of sounded more like their angry hissing noise, although it was weird that every time we heard it we were never near the enclosure. I was hoping that the Caatingas are just more vocal. Denial! Last night there was no denying! We heard a call that didn't sound like any of our other males. I peeked into Mycena's enclosure and this is what I saw!
So there is no denying that Mycena is a boy!!!![]()
