OKay I'll do that. My vet has this thing where they don't like to take fecals that are over 6 hours. ?? Oh well I'll do it anyway. I do feed him everynight. He does eat his crickets and some baby ood on his own too. Yep that are both eating and quite active. Maybe they aren't gravid, but the only way I will know is an expensive x-ray or if she lays. Well I will keep you posted. She is going on 46 nights. Plus she was digging for awhile, but I haven't seen any signs of digging for a couple of days now. I guess that is why I thought she was gravid. I have to wait and see. My other one is going on her 35 night.

Thanks,
Liz

:Liz if you only get a sample during the day, put it in the fridge (make sure it does not dry out) and save it until the vet is around. You should try hand feeding fruit to your male every night. Be patient and make sure he gets enough. How are the females doing? If they eating and everything they should be fine. They might just not have been gravid in the first place.
