Hello! My Shiao-Heh (almost 2 yr old and about 4.2 inches long) likes to wander around all the time during summer! On the weekends, I tend to feed them later in the afternoon to force them exercise more (they would try to look for food). But I notice that Panda George (about 15 months old, about 2.5 inch long) doesn't wander as much as Shiao-Heh. After PG had some food, she tended to just sit there and do nothing.
On the other hand, Shiao-Heh would sit a little while after she eats, then she would keep making her rounds/ laps, and then rest, and then wander again, till the lights go off, and she would slowly go to bed at her usual hiding spot.
Does it sound like Shiao-Heh could be a boy!? I saw it on the forum that boys like to wander more... Or Maybe Shiao-Heh is more normal active, and Panda George is still too little to be that active? I mean, PG is still active, but she doesn't make as many "rounds" like what Shiao-heh does.
Is Shiao-Heh too big for her age? I don't know if she is big enough for me to post picture here so people can help me determine her sex yet? I got her from Danny and he told me most likely she would be a girl, but we couldn't be 100% sure when she was little. It just seems like Panda George grows a lot slower than Shiao-Heh! Shiao-Heh was 3 inches long already when she was PG's age....
Also, do you guys think I can start having them living together yet (assuming they are both girls)? Right now they are living in a huge tank ( about 3'x6') and there is a divider in the middle, so they each get about 3'x3. I was also wondering if Shiao-Heh is wandering around because she wants to get out or something, like she thinks her home is too small? (the tank is white so they couldn't see through). I really want to remove the divider, so that Shiao-heh would have more space to wander around, but I was worried she would bully Panda George!
Thanks for reading my story. Any thoughts are welcome!
I've attached some pics so you can see their size difference. The divider is in the middle of their food dish. Think they are ready to live together yet?
(they couldn't see through the divider either)

I'll take a picture of Shiao-Heh's butt this weekend if you guys think she is big enough for determine sex now?
