they were probally a bit chilly. Warm them up slowly and they should come around. They may eat today. They did for me when I first got them. Give her a couple hours to pep up. I hope she is ok. She was doing real well when I shipped them out yesterday. Glad they arrived safe anyhow. I always worry.

i guess she was kinda freaked about being upside down maybe
they are chillin out under the heat lamp on the rock right now
did u give them calcium before u shipped them cause one of there noses looks like it has white stuff on its mouth and nose

thanx
andy

ps shes movin around a bit more

wow, was the container upside down or was she upside down in it? They were both right side up and packed pretty tightly when I shipped them. They must have had a rough ride. I guess some people at UPS must not be able to read because they don't understand "fragile" or "live cargo". She had a little bit of shed on her nose that did not come off the night before. She was licking at it and I moistened her container a little hopping she would get it. Take a wet q-tip and rub it gently to help remove it. It should come right off. I did not mess with it because I thought she was getting it her self. They had clacium dusted crix and supers Saturday. If you have super worms let them get adjusted some and try to give them a couple tonight. They will more than likely hammer them down. They were well handled breeders when I got them and don't get shook up over much to easy. I would say they are probally about 6 or 7 years old. I have had them for 4 1/2 years roughly and I think they were 2 when I got them. They should have some nice babies for you next spring. Hope they produce you some nice blizz babies. They should have many good years of life and good breeding yet with good care. Glad you like them, they were always good for me.

the one that was bigger stayed on her back after i opened it but the smaller one flipped right over and went to work i held them each a little bit and the smaller one is fasinated with the inside of my shirt while the bigger one like sitting on my head while i talked on aim i think they are goin to make fine pets
and breeders

hey do u know how i can get them to stop rubbing on the side of the aquarium theve started to stop trying to climb out but now they are just rubbinb it

thanx a lot for this geeboo

Glad they are doing better. They are probally just checking it out and kinda trying to spread there scent a little. They will calm down the were used to being in a 65 gallon with 4 other leos so they may take a bit to adjust to their new home. They must have been shipped upside down or something so they flipped over in their containers to be right side up and when he brought them to your door he had it right side up. They are pretty lovable and don't mind being held too much.
