Default Male Horsfield

It is with great sadness that after much thought I am rehoming my little Tyler, I have to do this because I can't really keep more than 1 male horsfield without compromising space for their seperate enclosures, I've decided to keep Spartacus as he is much older and has already been through several homes and been badly damaged in the past.

He is 10cm and 2 years old and is already trying to bite the female juveniles so is maturing quickly.

He hibernated successfully for 10 weeks for the first time and is doing great, he hasn't had any health issues in his 2 years. He has been fed on a weed/salad diet and supplemented with calcium and nutrobol.

His new home must be with an experienced keeper of this species and have indoor and outside enclosures as this is how he has been living.

Please PM if interested. I would also like to see some pictures of your set up.

Oh dear what a shame, he's so sweet. I wish I could take him for you Bev but I can't , not enough space . I'm sure you will find a good home.

I don't want to do it really suze, but I've thought long and hard, and I can only keep 1 male horsfield (I'm thinking of the future) he has always lived with the young girls and is already stressing Roxy out a bit as she now won't get up early like she used to and goes to bed earlier, it's such a shame Tyler is a male x

Oh Bev, that's hard for you. I'm sorry you have to do this. I'm sure you will find him a great home. Fingers crossed someone on here that you know will be able to help out. xxx hugs xxx

It must be heartbreaking for you Bev. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you can find an excellent home for Tyler, with someone you can keep in contact with so you can see how he grows up.

I know what you are saying Bev, I couldn't cope with more than one Ptolome, he's such a bugger if only they could just behave, then they could stay

I will keep everything crossed for you.
