look at the cohabitting threads, you need to separate them, this is the exact reason why.
Not a good thing to have happen, but does go to show that it DOES happen. |

What if they fight again while you are not there?
They can cause serious injury to each other, even death.
Why risk it?
Separate them.
Also if they have bred the male needs removing anyway. Where you planning on breeding them? |

| Yes but some may be too small or reluctnt to feed on pinkies so you have to start them on heads (pinkie+scissors=heads) |

So from your posts I'm guessing you know very little about breeding?
Best get some studying done asap as you may well have eggs on the way soon!
The eggs are usually taken away from the female and put in an incubator. |

| The white ones are the good ones, the brown ones are called slugs, unfertilised and dead. They need to be taken out and away from the white ones as they rot and they will damage the good ones. He will also have a problem if/when they hatch as hatchlings are very small, quick and will escape out of a vivarium with ease. |
