Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Well, the "stork" arrived at my house over the weekend. I brought home the girls - Lizzie (what else would the kids name her?) and ZuZu. Lizzie is a hypo-tang (3 mos.) and ZuZu is a Rainwater Albino (2 1/2 mos.). I got them both from Evergreen Reptiles. What a great first experience with leos. Brice (the breeder) is great. He's got really nice animals and is really good about communication.
Anyway, I got them home into the 55 -gallon set-up and Lizzie got busy. She explored every inch of that tank and climbed on everything she could reach. ZuZu was a little more subdued but I think they both had a big day at the show (NW Captive Breeders Expo). I was really pleased that Lizzie (The tang) has developed very nice color on her back. I hung around the table looking at some of the others and a few people asked about buying her even though she was set aside with no price. She is very outgoing too. A little shy when the kids come near the tank, but pretty good all in all. Neither one of them are interested in the humid hide yet, but they have lots of other good hiding spots, both on the warm and cool side.
I know they've both eaten at least a couple of mealworms so I'm not too worried about their eating habits. I'm going to pick up some crickets too for variety and to give them something a little more interesting to chase around - that might get their appetites pumping a bit.
Thanks for all the advice leading up to their home-coming. It was really helpful.

I have taken a couple of pictures, but they're not very good. I'm letting them get a little more used to their new home before I go too snap-happy.
I'll get some pix soon!
Thanks for asking, Dean
