I have a lot of those basics. Was wondering if they can be sexed by x-ray...some monitors can and some not. I know of one breeder but they are doing this overseas and possibly the only babies available right now.
I have four right now and all are different in temperment but all will accept food by hand and will accept petting in the cage. This was an ammediate reaction so with a little work I would think all could easily become fairly tame.
I am struggling with keeping a heat pad under the hiding spot. I want them to be warm but trying to keep them from using it to thermoregulate and never coming out. Was thinking maybe a thermastat on it and reducing to ?? temp. This would make them have to use the heat lamp...Any suggestions?
