The one on the right of your picture is a female not a male.

The blurry one on the left could be a male. Hard to tell with the particular photo.


In general male cons are just black and white. No color at all. Females will have coloring as previously stated. When a male is challenged or is ready to mate it will go almost completely black.

As for breeding. Males are not picky. Throw in a male and female with a piece of slate and they will breed. There really is no need for mulitiple females.

[EDIT} I see that you corrected the pictures kooter the female is labeled right now. ;)
