Old faithful did. She also has scares on her from the male. Anyone else had this happen?

I've only ever had one female lose her tail during breeding. As for scarring, a lot of my breeders do have a few bite marks here and there from over-enthusiastic males. Most go away after a shed or two.

I've never had a female loose her tail due to mating, but I have had a male or two drop theres from prudish females getting a little annoyed by the males constant advances.

Yeah I have never lost a tail during breeding but some of the females have a few bite marks none of which broke the skin.

the only thing that i dont like about cresties is that their tails dont regrow..... i think without it they look pretty weird...like funky frogs... thats y i take EXTRA care when handling them
