Hhahaha you're right with the "fair" part! That's really neat..I didn't think of it that way but I definitely like it! :wink:

And nope no leo yet, it's warm enough to ship him now but I'm not sure if I want to get him anymore.....I kinda want to save the little space I have for more BTS and such... :roll: Decisions, decisions, decisions......lol I'll keep you posted though! :wink: Thanks for remembering and asking buddy! :D

I was under the impression that you had already paid for him, and were just waiting to get the perfect weather time frame. :noknow:

Yeah....I did pay for him but haven't heard from the guy in awhile and after thinking about it....I'm considering seeing if he wants to sell him to someone else...even if he doesn't want to give me my money back (which I somewhat understand...I am the one backing out..) I figure to actually get him and use the space and food and all that it'd cost less in the long run to just take the loss.... :noknow:

I think the problem is that I had to wait so long....if we would have been able to ship him like forever ago when I actually picked him out and paid for him then I totally would have been ecstatic :( Now having been able to toy with the idea for so long I'm thinking I'd rather use my space for more blueys....(plus I purchased an armadillo lizard in the meantime because I had the extra space and he wasn't super expensive...lol)

:roll: Ugh...I'm crazy.....

I really thought I wanted to try to maybe breed them or something, but decided I don't need the extra project with wanting to try to breed blueys at some point....

Anywho, maybe someone on here wants him...I could just have the guy ship to them...there's an idea....I paid for him already and I highly doubt I'll get my money back ($70 shipping included...) so maybe someone on here would like him as a free gift! tee hee! :P

I can post a pic if anyone is interested....he's a rainwater something or other and I thought he was pretty!

Lemme know if anyone is interested!

Thanks for asking about that tho good buddy! :wink:

:shock:

*raises hand*

I am planning on getting another skink, a tanny soon.. I then want to make a 4 plex housing unit like Renees to house them in.. That would open up 3 tanks! Plus I have one 20 gal just sitting.. But is that too small for Leo's?

I would Gladly take him for free...


However I am sure there are others here that would be happy to help you by taking him and recoup for your loss as well..

With the response from the choices I was kickin around, I am pretty sure Bella is going to be the new name. It's still way out in the lead, and I really like it too..


And Colin, beg yours? Fang? I may be a few tinnies short of a slab, but I don't think I could name her fang. And Why not Bella? It's dinkum for sure, you don't approve mate? She also might be up the duff, so we'll see, I'll be sure to keep everyone posted! Even you Colin you ole bloke. She'll be apples.

Colin, I would really love that! I am afraid I would get over there and act the goat, and just go silly over all the blueys! Can I catch some like your alpines mate? But wouldnt it rot your socks, if I had the axle grease I would be over there in a few ticks! I guess will come if you promise to put a few bangers on the barbie though, I can't get enough of those. :D
