what size caves are you using for the 204's? getting my breeding group up together but find the right cave for them.

It is a cave in the size "large", about 6cm wide and 15cm long. L204 don't use caves so much unless there is a reason for it such as spawning activity or to little other hiding places. Make sure you have lots and lots of wood for them to eat and hide under. Make your selection for a breeding group out of many specimens because finding a female is rare..... Ideal is 1 male and 1 or 2 females. After 20 or so specimens I finally found the one female. I paired her up with a large male and they seem to like each other :D Now the hard part....getting them to spawn. Had them a year now so having some patience as well would come in useful :nw:
Good luck :thumbup:
