Ok ML...Pics of my babies

Postby Krippschick » Wed May 30, 2012 1:16 pm

The IJ is Bandit, for newer people who havent seen my guy and gal. He is almost 2 and 18 inches long...even though he eats very well, he is not heavy like my girl, Snickers. Snickers is a Merauke, she is 3 yrs old and about 25-26 inches long...tricky to be totally accurate. Bandit is confirmed male as we found a sperm plug in his terrarium. I am assuming since we have had Snickers for couple of yrs and no sperm plugs ever...that she is female.

Bandit is really dark right now because he is going to shed soon and he always gets dark looking before hand.

I thought you said the Snickers was a girl... I was going to have a heart attack.
She is a great example of a female Merauke.
Bandit has grown so much!
Thanks :D

She looks so shiny and beautiful, I think the pics under the uv light make her colors stand out more. Hubbys camera takes good pics.

Ok pics of Bandit now that he has shed, and the terrarium is cleaned and redone. Its funny how different lighting makes his colors so different looking.
