Yes, she did climb up onto my hand...don't worry when she gets used to her new home she will become curious again. :) I don't like this time at all because it's worrisome shipping animals and they all become a little hissy because of rough dark trip!

Yeah, Martinsperson, alot of us on the forum are related now! (sorta :? )

Well, today she ate well while I was out running errands. She has been leaving me a little "present" each day so far which is good. Instead of burrowing under the substrate today she decided to hide in a little log. Here's a couple pics of her peaking out. Too cute....

She's way back in the log now. I can't coax her out. Hopefully I'll get to hold her when she comes out later.

:ohyes:

She's going to outgrow that log in a matter of months... be careful she doesn't get stuck in there. Blueys have this idea they don't get bigger, either that, or they think they're skinnier than they really are.

Seriously, not trying to be funny. Though it is funny in concept...

Lol, PupD's chair experience jumps to mind. Poor Zenny! I'd have been flipping out too!

I'll keep an eye on her size so she doesn't get stuck in anything! That must be scary for them! And their owner! lol

She looks like her scales are getting a little dry. Maybe she's beginning to shed? It sounds like a few of the other babies are starting their sheds already. I'll keep watching. I think I may spray her with water or put a little bowl in there with wet carefresh for her to walk around in.

I saw this product at the Petsmart that is supposed to help with Shedding. You spray it on if it looks like your reptile is having a problem getting the dry shed off. Has anyone ever used this? I don't plan on it unless she has a problem. Then I think I'll try a warm bath first.

Yeah, those "shed-aide" things are a waste of money! If they can't get it all of themselves, a warm bath does the trick in seconds. :) Just remember to let them go thru their routine first! :) And keep an eye on the toes of course...

I wasn't quite around when that situation happened, but geez, we talked about it quite a bit afterwards when I started up here...

...speaking of Zenny, I wish I had time to visit her. I'm in SF fright now, but with only two days on my hands. :leftout: Next time, Zenny. Unless you're really close to Grove and Gough. :lol:

Love the new pictures! She looks so cute under the log!
Martinsperson--I thought Sebastian was a Peach baby too. (I'm about to check the sales page for your name.)
D--Charlotte is shedding too. She seems to be doing fine on her own but watch Sammy's toes (and tail tip) like Zach said.
K--Didn't know about them getting stuck in logs and such. Thanks for the warning!
