Guess what! I have no willpower!

Went to the Hillsboro animal expo with NO INTENTIONS of bringing home anything living, I swear. Came home with an 75 gallon tank and a new ornate! Tee hee!

He's male, purchased from Doug Dix, no name yet. This is a dreadful picture (he was zonked out by the time I could get to the camera), but here he is. More pictures to follow soon.

Also confirmed that Turtle and Tank are both male, dang it. Looks like Arthur is a lady surrounded by a whole harem of males.

Very cute Torey. I'm sure I saw that little one when I was at his place last month. Of course their were many more in the cage. So did Doug have a bunch of uros at the show?

You can run, but you can't hide... unless you're a uro

There were only a couple ornate babies left by the time I was there - two males and a female. He had a cage with several sub-adult Malis and another with sub-adult and juvie fresh import Saharans. Then there were oodles of little youngins! So cute!
