New Photos

My Red Phase sling 02/06 has really done well. First 2 pix shows less than a years growth (thanks stubby8th). The Scorp, I am told is an Odonterus dentatus. It is about 1.5 in. long, and has been eating very well for me.

Vineagaroons

My wild caught Vineagaroon that i received from Graham in '05 passed away this fall. So, I found 2 babies to replace 'em (thanks padkison). One is pictures in my Wedding Band. These guy are great hunters and eaters. But do they ever grow?!?

Spider movements....

it's been a while since I added any pix. So here goes.

My T. blondi ( great deal from MyNameIsYours (Artin Siraki)), arrived plump, and is now ready to molt.
And from my buddy Stubby8th(Tom Ahlstrom), this awsome female A. versi! What an excellent hunter.
I've posted pix of my M. robustom before. But she was out and eating, and she photographs so well, I could not help myself.
Last of the spiders for now, is this black widow that came from a local grocery store! Now how often does that happen?

Forgot one.

I forget that I have an OBT (how many of you do the same thing?) Hadn't seen this one in 5-6 weeks. Hadn't eaten the last 2 crix I dropped in, so I thought I'd investigate. She lives under a 1/2 flowerpot, so iI reallt didn't do much damadge looking for her.

and some with 4 legs or less.

(* If snakes eating bothers you, you may want to look away *)

Great picture of the pattern on this Sonoran gopher snake. The seller told me it was "shy" when it came to eating. No way! Over 2 ft. now. Should reach 6ft. +

Next 2 are a pair of African Burrowing "Pythons" ,Calabaria reinhardtii. Very strange, and very cool for my Animal Diversity program.

Picture #4 is one of 2 Gargoyle Geckos I now own. Their colors never seem to be exactly the same. One is much lighter than the other. My boys named them "Mocha" and "Latte".

And finally, my oldest (14) son's Brazilian Rainbow Boa. He is doing a fantastic job with this snake. Nice to see I am rubbing off on him (a little).

All your animals are amazing! I love seeing how your GBB has grown, I didn't realize they had such gorgeous colors, even at such a small size! Always nice to see another fellow OH resident, too!

Jeffie is my Argentine Black and White Tegue. Always wanted a larger Lizard. As of this month, he is appx. 28 months old. Eats just about anything offered. Takes up quite a bit of area in my Critter Room, but well worth it. Free roams when I am in the room. Must be comfortable as I had friends over one day, and I forgot to double check the locks. One of the kids must have unlocked the door as I was letting the visitors out. Came back about 36 hrs later and freaked when I found one of the doors wide open. Did the typical search all over the room, even the basement where my room is. Never thought to dig in the substrate. There he was. Hope ya' enjoy. Highly recommend these to anyone who has room, and food a plenty.

What an envy inducing collection! For one, that is one of the most gorgeous widows I've ever seen in my life. Second, I am in love with that tegu. I wish so much that we had the space for one. As soon as we do, I'm getting one. Thanks for sharing these pics, I look forward to seeing more.
