Thanks Roy,

I work very hard to try and keep my animals in great condition. That is the only reason I left the Midwest Museum of Natural History. My standards, while I understand are a bit unrealistic, were not going to come close to a possibility there. Being up until 5am cleaning, and running fresh fecal exams at 2am are just things you need to do if you want to be on top of your collection. Granted, there are battles you wont win, but something certainly feels wrong about going into a necropsy blind.

I am glad you like the photos, and I will probably get more up soon. Your request for Pseustes photos really made me realize I should spend some fun time taking pictures of my animals. Things can really start to wear on you when the only interaction with your animals involves 5 seconds of transfer time, and however many hours of cleaning time.

Sorry for the long post. I just wanted you to know I appreciate your response.
