Hello
I was wondering.. When do sulcatas become sexually mature ? Looks like i have a male and a female or maybe i am wrong, what do you guys think ? They are both 4 years old and they are about 17 and 17 1/2 in , i keep them separately because one its pretty aggressive .

So my initial question is , breeding its about how big they are or how old they are ?

Males can reproduce as small as 14". Females usually need to be 17-18", but I've heard of rare exceptions as small as 15".

It does appear that you have a male and female, but I can't zoom in on your pics enough to be sure.
