hmm... ok well I know L.C. is a male.. (he's been checked and even gave a little "white
present" when being checked lol)... and when a female's shed was palced in with him he
got very excited looking/searching for the "female"..
it could be that Powder is a male too... it sounds like male fighting behaviour.
I placed two of my males together (harvest and the snow I had) and they lined up their
bodies, holding the heads cocked sideways and above the ground, the snow twitched his
body all over the other (showing his dominance what I was told..) and it sounds like that is
kind of what powder is doing. (holding head above the other.. that is the dominance.. since
harvest and the snow were the same size they "fought" a bit, but since L.C. is so much
smaller, he knows he wouldn't win a fight and runs.. that's my best guess...)
Ok, so what to do from here.. seperate them for now. Get Powder, take a good look at
the tail, can you do me a favor and measure the tail length from tip to vent? Also, how
wide is the tail? (is it basically the same width after the vent as it is before the vent?)
If you can, get Powder probed... also another "test" would be to take a fresh shed
from Powder (either one a few days old or wait if s/he's going into another shed cycle)
and put the shed skin in with L.C. and watch how he reacts to it. Got my fingers crossed for ya...
