to put it nicely, i've had really farkin bad luck when it comes to dovii's and trying to get a male. firstly, i bought a 12" dovii, thinking it was a male (so did alot of other people). turned out it was a female. i then sold it to grow a juvi up myself to find out that what i thought was gonna be a stunning looking male.... turned out to be a female. since then dovii's have 'dried up' over here and are gettin harder and harder to find, especially a male. so now i have 3 female dovii's + 2 female umbees (don't even get me started on that lol).

this is the last of the dovii's in perth, W.A. and it's around 2". it'll probly be stunted or something as it's from the same batch as my mates and his is around 8", but i don't care!!

WISH ME LUCK THAT IT'S A MALE LOL...

(sorry for the long rant...)

female bro... j/k too young lol
 
good luck :D!
 
Dont feel bad CubanB, I raised at least four females hoping to get a male. My last one still looks like a male. I finally took some advice from other MFK members and ordered me an F1 male Nicaraguan Dovii from Jeff Rapps. I cant wait until he grows some more. Right now he is only around 4".

spewin!! at least someone else feels my pain. mate i'd love to have the option of simply doing a rapps order but unfortunately he can't send to australia (stupid laws:confused:). good luck with your male though. are you gonna try bred it with your current 'male looking' female?
