Umchazampilo

[hlela | Hlela umthombo]

INyandezulu iyinyoka ejwayele ukutholakala ezihlahleni kanye nasemahlathini lapho zizingela khona izigcibilikishi(izigaqambha) kanye namasele asezihlahleni. Zingompetha ekunompeleni kanti futhi ziyakwazi nokubhukuda, zibona kahle, kanti futhi zihlale ziqaphile lapho zikhona. Azisibo neze ogwevanendawo kanti zingahambha amabanga amade lapho ziyokweluka.

Ukuzalana

[hlela | Hlela umthombo]

Izinsikazi zingabeka amaqanda abalelwa kwama-3 kuya kwayi-12 amajana njalo ehlobo, kuthi ichwane lona lilinganiselwe kuma sentimitha angama-25 ubude (kusukela kutshubungu kuyofinyelela emsileni).
