Do they grow in trees or spit out babies or what?

They can reproduce sexually via the release of sperm and egg, but don't count on it in captivity; or asexually when young plates develope from damaged tissue from the parent.

here is how mine reproduced. I stabbed it in the mouth with a screw driver, and scraped it down to the edge. It made close to 100 clones

I've heard of doing this. How long does it take? How fast do the babies grow?

atzak how is this preformed? You just stab and scrape?
