Not that I'm biased or anything, but I have to say that these have to be the 2 cutest little sweeties ever *grin*. I just got them last Wednesday night, they were born a couple of days apart, but both are about 3 weeks old now :)
I'd like to say a big thank you to Teresa, it took me about 2 seconds to fall in love with these guys! :D

Here's Sierra, she's a patternless 66% het for blizzard:

And here's Lexi, a blizzard with an attitude -- hehe :) She screamed like a little banshee the first 2 times I picked her up, but she actually behaved quite well for her little photo session tonight, didn't make a peep :)

I can't wait to see how these little ladies turn out :) Both are future girlfriends for my male blizzard Merlin -- although obviously they've got a lot of growing to do first! :)

If anyone is interested, I've got a couple more pics posted at the link below -- I'm sure that there'll be more in the coming weeks & months as well -- hehe :) I can never resist taking pictures of my babies, especially when they're this small & adorable!

Hope you enjoy :D

Thanks :)

LOL -- yeah, it's kinda creepy lookin, eh? ;) When their heads are light like that you can see those "eye shadows" in their heads. It's definitely there on my albinos, and you'll probably be able to see it on Sierra too once she starts to lose her pattern and her head lightens up...

whoa, that blizzard is really cool. I don't keep lizards (yet lol). What does something like that run USD from a US breeder?

Beware Sterlin -- once you've got one, it's all downhill from there ;) Soon you won't be able to move around all the tanks you've got set up.... hehe :)

Seriously though -- blizzards tend to run anywhere from $75 (if you're lucky and find one on sale) to $125US I think... CrestedGecko.com, LLL Reptiles & Prehistoric Pets are the main ones that I know of down there that breed them -- I'm sure there's a tonne more though...

Oh, and (as their name implies), blizzards are white as adults -- they lose the yellow that they're born with within a month or 2... my male is almost 4 months old, and he was white when I got him at 1.5 months. Lexi is almost a month old, I expect that she should be fairly white after her next couple of sheds....
There's also banana blizzards though (more expensive of course, since they're a newer morph), and they keep their yellow coloration as adults...

Thanks Blazin :)

She's actually not a banana blizzard though (not that I'd object if she was!)... she just hasn't shed enough times to lose the yellow yet :)
