Greetings all,
Here are a few photographs of the yearling male that I recently acquired, he is considerably lighter in colour than my females:



Also, my big female finally succeeded in shedding her skin. I have had her since late June 2003 (she's a yearling) and up until today had yet to shed. I cannot believe how long they go between sheds (she eats three or more prey items every 10 days too and is still growing).
Anyway, she went significantly blue a week ago and finally shed today. She had been making use of her humidity box but still only managed to rid her self of half of her skin. I placed her in a rubbermaid container with a saturated towel and she got the caudal half of the skin off in no time.
Some pics:

Poor girl couldn't move for a week!

Freshly shed and finally rid of her burden, notice the remainder of her skin has come off, works every time.... She looks happy!
Cheers,
Ryan
