Thanks for the compliment Toby. I am happy to be working with this species again. I took a break from the reptile hobby about 11 years ago and got rid of my entire collection with the exception of a pair of prized glades rats. I had a friend keeping them for me at his place since my work schedule didn't permit me to care for them. Then one day he tells me the female escaped.



After approx 10 years of not having a female for that lone male I finally got some female hypos up to size last year. The photo I posted previously is one of the babies from those breedings.



Here is a photo of the male/sire from a few years ago. He is an old guy that I raised from hatchling size.
