I would too....but it's looking like Kaper may be the only female (Other than Ginger) What about Renee's Kei? I know she's in Oregon though..and that's not much closer. hmmmmmm.... :chin:

I don't even know for sure with Charlie and Ginger; they could both be males! Greg guessed that they were both male, so we'll see...

That's what I was going to do with Heather. Jacki's a little far for a road trip though.

I was going to say the same thing...that'd be a 2-3 day drive....plus waiting for them to "get to know each other" and then to actually "fall in love" and then another 2-3 day trip back...i'd have to take like a month off work/school!! haha

You would have to ship her in the fall so she got use to the cage here and brumated here. So you are talking about going possible a good six months without your baby. Longer probably to find out if she is gravid.

:chin: Hmmm....we'll leave it up to the experts then...I don't know if that'd be too stressful b/c then if she is gravid would shipping back be too stressful? It'd just be nice to actually have a clutch of CB Kei Islands that are TRUE Kei's sometime fairly soon. I don't know....Zach? Edward? Anyone?

I think it's easier to ship the male. I would still have to send Baylee to you in the fall so he could brumate there but you would be able to ship him back to me as soon as he did his job. I don't think I would want to risk shipping a gravid female. Which means I would have to keep Kaper until after she had the babies.

Let me know what he says and what you decided.

If he does take him definetly give him my name and we can see what happens. This is nothing against him because I don't know him but I'm not sure I'd feel comfertable loaning out Baylee to him. I feel that I know you and Jacki because you are on here all the time and from what you post I can tell that you really love your guys and take really good care of them. I would be okay with one of you taking care of my baby for such a long period of time. It's different to put that trust in someone I don't really know.
