Andy noticed Nim had a lot of shed stuck to his head last night, so I took him out to give him a warm bath. Turns out that a fine layer of skin on his chin is scraped off ( Read more... )

Vaguely related; I'm finally a Frogbutt Mom. I was doing the warm bath thing last night, myself, for one of the newer babies because there was some shed that was pretty tight around the tip of the tail (My dad doesn't know to look for that kind of thing when I'm away). Anyway, the wet q-tip caressed the tail, I pulled gently at the shed... and BOOM. There's a gecko in one hand biting my finger and a wriggling tail on my lap.

It was creepy in an amusing sort of way. LOL. It just kept wriggling and wriggling. Poe was fascinated. Me, not so much.

But anyway. I finally have a Frogbutt Gecko. ;)

I hope Nim is okay! I need to pick up bigger critter keepers for a couple of the baby pairs because they're starting to get a bit cramped and I don't want squabbles to start. LOL.

Vesper escaped her tank sometime last week while I was away and returned Wednesday night. I woke up and found her trying to get BACK INTO her tank. LOL. It's such a freakin' sideshow around my place. ;)

Oh my!! I think that would definitely freak me out. *laughs*

How many do you have now? :D You should consider renaming Vesper to Houdini. ;)

I'm at 16. LOL. Six adults, four subadults, six babies. It's a zooooo!

Actually, I think Vesper proved her prowess as a Bond Girl. LOL
