    Very nice, Kris.
    Good job on the rescue.
    It won't take long to get him back to normal.
    Sometimes they just need some TLC.

    Re: Other Reptiles/Amphibians

    Thanks guys I love love the yellow on his sides. He's not nearly as active and fun to watch as Simone is. I put him in a tub and set him in the bathroom while my older two took there showers, then wiped him off with a warm damp rag. Managed to get the patches of old shed off. His G/F is still at the shelter, she's full of eggs and won't be released untill she lay's them. Sad thing, is I think they're just going to trash the eggs.

    Why does her being with eggs stop you from getting her now? Is that a shelter rule? and if so, why?
    I've never hatched snake eggs before but have done my share of turtle eggs. Any chance you can get the eggs? It's a big undertaking and I can understand if you woudn't want to do it.

    shelters tend to take the tack that there's not much reason to propagate animals that ended up there to begin with, since that does say something about supply and demand

    Re: Other Reptiles/Amphibians

    Marie and I finally decided on what lizard we were going to get...


    This little guy is still without name...




    We thought this was the best idea since we already had a ten gallon starer kit from when my corn was a baby and it was just sitting there...no need to take up more space.Now all three tanks are full!
