Both were confirmed female and also finally received their names. Just thought I'd share some updated pictures if anyone is interested.This is Athena. I purchased her at roughly 4in from a local exotics shop.  Here is a picture of her when initially purchased and then in premolt. [ATTACH=full]1244[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1245[/ATTACH] Now postmolt[ATTACH=full]1246[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1247[/ATTACH] This is Artemis. She was purchased from PetSmart at roughly 3.5in. Here is a picture of her when initially purchased and again in premolt. [ATTACH=full]1248[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1249[/ATTACH] And now! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> I'm amazed at the color she gained in just one molt.[ATTACH=full]1250[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1259[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1251[/ATTACH] I still can't believe how vibrant the color is on these two. Not bad for a couple of pet rocks!</blockquote>
