There seems to be a few disjointed threads about these so I am creating one. The asterix button is broken so I cannot make it an official one :p.

Just purchased this beautiful Blazing Blizzard Albino Leopard Gecko:

And a High Red Ruby Eyed Corn Snake, Pictures will follow in a few days!

Also waiting on 2 Red Eyed Crocodile Skinks!

Anyone has any questions, or information on care of these fantastic animals, hit me! There are quite a few reptile lovers on here, and one thing you find is that one is never enough!

I have a Corn Snake, would love to get a Royal Python at some point. Love that new Gecko you have there.
 
Added another pic to OP.
You can't really see the yellow colouring on its back, which will change as it gets older. Horace used to be stripey!
 
Love the santa hat on Falcor OP :D!

I had a gecko when I was younger, and would love to get another - but I just don't have the room in my current situation :(
 
haha you know it!

He's a funny one to look after. He's 4 years old and when he was 3 he got a VERY bad eye infection. Since then he's gone blind in one eye but the trauma re appears every 5-6 weeks causing his eye to weep.

He then goes off food whilst i administer painkillers, anti biotics and eye drops. Once he's better he's fine but its a rinse repeat cycle that has cost me around £200 in vets bills.

Regardless of what pets are, if i can do anything to keep them healthy i will!
 
Heres a few of my Blue Tongue Skink! :D

And his new viv I've just rehomed him into..

Hes quite friendly as lizards go. When I get back from work, he'll come up to the front of the glass to see whats going on. Hes quite happy sitting on me and watching TV and I quite often let him out to poke around the living room. Hes not quite as pretty as the Geckos about but BTSs make great pets! :)

Now I've rehomed him, it means I have a 4x18x18 viv going spare so I need to think of something to fill it with! :)
 
Well, we are putting a pair in a 4ft x 2ft x 2ft for life, they should be happy there. They like to climb as well, so make more use of the space than leo's etc.

Found this website:
http://www.tribolonotus.com/HOUSINGMAINTENANCE.htm

Says 2.5ft2 for one, and 3.75ft2 for 2. So yes. They like to live in pairs. They are quite rare, ours were £95 each!

Oh, Horace just shed last night! Got to get an up to date photo today ro tomorrow!
