TREX and THOR are in India!

Well the 12th September i arrived in India, with 9 of my babies, i.e., my 2 iguanas, my 2 monkey tails, my 2 uros, my beardie, my leopard gecko and my croc skink.The temp was VERY high, around 95F during the night!My igs ajusted very quickly, they loved their new and huge cages (4fx4fx7f)and the new and huge garden.But since then the temp is droping and yesterday it was only 65F during the night! Winter is coming and it seems that the winter in New Delhi can be VERY cold! So from now on my igs will have to sleep indoors what is unusual because in Malaysia, they got used to live outdoors, 24/7/365.

Wow! Your pet's list is long!How many hours a day do you spend taking care of them?!lol!I wish i could have so many pets too!

I only have nine reptiles now and im spending lots of time taking care of them because the weather in India is not as reliable as it was in Malaysia.Sometimes its too hot sometimes its too cold!Seven of my babies are doing great but my 2 igs are not doing very well.Sometimes they eat, sometimes they dont.Im doing my best to keep them warm and confortable but igs can be difficult to please and they do hate changes in their routine.Any ideas?

It was not easy to take the 9 of them from Malaysia to India mainly because 6 of them are CITES II.But now im happy to have them with me.It would have been horrible to leave them behind!Thanks for your message!
