I did some searching but didn't find an answer to my question so I'm throwing it out here.. spurs. So, my question is, are they out all the time or only during "mating" season?

I know that both sexes have 'em and use 'em for mating purposes. I also know that they are not an indicator of gender, and that size varies from bp to bp.

I've only had Goliath for a short time (three weeks at most) and when he first arrived and I checked him over I did not see (or perhaps in my excitement or quick search to not overly stress him out) and/or not notice them until this afternoon. I was totally amazed to notice them and at first was like what the heck are these thi... oh. spurs?! kewl.

thanx.
