Here's Jiminy:<img src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FRrcSBkQjqE/V9y9Nw6_LuI/AAAAAAAAFQQ/lGlv5h310RUgaKUYG2eg1MWLkmFOSpKIQCLcB/s1600/Jiminy%25231.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jQakbLuZw70/V9y9N-YNziI/AAAAAAAAFQY/PqPS9PmhT6E3pQTTGnUC-tTQHr8kLZgGgCLcB/s1600/Jiminy%25232.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-IT-6dP6kSb0/V9y9N4BoV2I/AAAAAAAAFQU/cJEqPqCs9UkNtWJxPDPgJs9xvYOzBr4DACLcB/s1600/Jiminy%25233.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Genital hooks:<img src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-dV-aWvjH684/V9y9OgSqWsI/AAAAAAAAFQg/LBg2hAOO5YQTw2EwdvmoLpsECX1jckqygCLcB/s1600/Jiminy%25235.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0lUiW6UMZjU/V9y9OxBqEkI/AAAAAAAAFQk/ycmF35ZpLdU3vtJWHUNY9hhpiA1H6d67ACLcB/s1600/Jiminy%25236.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> I paired him up with Swirl, and I also paired Tiny up with Sam, both of which also matured recently. Fingers crossed they'll mate successfully and that the males won't get eaten, as I have some more females that are mature and in need of some lovin'. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
