As far as I know there were no babies lost, though it's possible she could have eaten anything that came out wrong/dead. I was amazed when I realized just how many there were. No wonder she didn't have space for food in there.

These pictures are actually pretty awful, and really seem to wash-out the colours. Ellen and Erin just happen to be really bright to make up for it :lol: I'll attempt to get much better ones in a day or so. I will say all these babies are full of personality and most seem to be fearless. They're also all little pigs <3

I seriously need to get better pictures. These babies wow me, and yet the photos here are awful. I blame the terrible lighting...

Evita throws some stunning babies. I'd love to get Fluke's too, but they're all shedding and look silly <3 I keep falling in love with the babies. They're so full of personality.

I told you the original photos were awful!

Eeee! Glad you are familiar with the meme! xD *high fives*
I love the bright sides they all have! How do you manage to not end up keeping them all?

Btw, I think I am falling in love with Eve and Etsy :love:

I don't know how I'm going to let this batch go. I spend so much time staring at them (I don't spend as much on Fluke's, poor sheddy darls are so underappreciated). The variety amazes me. Some like Edna and Erin are amazingly light (Jenga influence?), while others like Elaine and Esmerelda are very dark. Emily and Elsa both strike me as being different, and I'm kindof in love. Maybe I could find space for another 6 here somewhere...

And Etsy and Eve! Perfect straight bands v. perfect zipper bands! The difference is striking! Etsy is almost symetrical enough to be scary, and the markings on her neck seem neat to me. And Eve's cape looks like a white lizard turning colorful and darker as you move to the tail. And both were quite sweet, which I appreciate (a few tried to eat my fingers, but I don't blame them, I made food earlier). I think I could wax poetic about each one :lol: I'm so smitten by these tiny critters.

Yeah, I was thinking Jenga made his mark on quite a few.
And you know, when you think about it you only need 6'x3' for a bed in your room. The rest is really wasted space, so why not stick a few extra terrariums in?

Yes! Exactly! I love the difference between them, you get the best of both types that way!
Although in all honesty Erin is really standing out to me too... Maybe if I just got rid of my dresser in my room...

Sometime, I'll take a video of my room. It's wall-to-wall tanks, with a bed in the corner. I have no space, and it's very tight and cluttered, but the skinks have room (always need more though). I had to give up dressers and closets to make room :lol:

I would love to see that video! Maybe I could get some terrarium stacking tips for my room ;)
My room is only 10'x10' but my mom insists that it is too small for two 6'x2' terrariums. Pssssssh.
