I have to agree with you! A nice, big (relatively) vivarium and two beautiful, healthy Northern Blueys for the price of a used cage or ONE of the Blueys...lucked out there! By the way, they have NO scars, all their toes and I like their color...thought their not quite "sunset" or "caramel" northerns. :)

I am thankful for getting such beautiful animals at a good price and being able to give them, what I like to think, is a better place/environment to live in! 8)

Thanks for everyone weighing in on my request for Northern identification, I still hope to get few more pros to weigh in...sent my email out to Andrew last night as well...hope to get his opinion sometime. :)

Yeah, I know there was no guessing involved, it is just that animals are, in general, difficult to judge from pictures alone. If someone else saw something that he might not have, then maybe there could be some doubts as to their origin.

I was, in no way, stating that anyone was guessing.

:) I am just glad that there has been NO question about it! Makes me feel EVEN BETTER about the deal I got here! Both these kids are now sleeping pretty well...they just kinda "told me" that's what they wanted to do and so I have been easing the lights down along with the temp...otherwise I would post some better pics here for a more thorough review...especially since I don't have any good pics of the other little guy...

At any rate, thanks again for everyone's time in reviewing my new Blueys! Next I will find out if I have a pair...or a he-he or she-she. Hoping for a pair or she-she! :D

Oh man, if someone did question the validity of the species, they wouldn't have a clue what they were talking about. These are as northern as they get!
