I've been a 'silent reader' and rare contributor to this forum on and off over the last seven years (I had a pair of Mali's for seven years and they are now in another wonderful home) but with new baby Uro's, I just wanted to share some pics and I'm sure I'll be asking for some advice along the way too!

This is a pair of baby Bandeds from Doug Dix. They arrived today to our much anticipated excitement! I've had about ten conversation with my little girl (and anticipate a number more) about their need for peace and quiet for awhile as they adjust but it's hard to pull her away from the side of that terrarium anxiously watching for them to appear=). The one we're sure is a female is named 'Sprinkles' and the questionable one we refer to as a 'he' is named 'Salty'..I have no idea where she got that name from!=) They are family pets and we're looking forward to watching them grow and I want to teach my little girl what I know about reptiles and see her enjoy them=). Sprinkles has spent most of her time in the hide away, coming out to check things out once or twice while Salty seems to curious to be satisfied with the hide..he's in and out and checking us out too! They both already seem very sweet and curious and I'm so looking forward to see their personalities and banded patterns develop=).

Have a great week!
Molly
