I would like to say "Terry is such a bad influence!" or "Look what Terry has gone and made me do now!" BUT we ALL know that the second I saw this sweetie I was screaming "MINE MINE MINE MINE"! :p

Another special little guy to come home with my Buck! He did need a buddy, after all!!! THANK YOU TERRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You ARE a BIG influence... but a GOOD ONE!!!!!!!!!!! :D

In about 5 years he will probly look like a MONSTER Mediterranean with really really unique patterns on his head..

This color 'morph' [ suspected ] shows occasionally from one of my males.. any/all of the females have produced one.

AND.. YES you're the one that said Bucklebury needed a buddy to grow up with.. so I was only trying to help..

BTW.. whenever there is a lone '08 out munching "left-overs".. it's always 'you-know-who'..... the Buck'

You can always say that your lonely little guy needed someone to keep him company. But on a realistic note, babies really do do better in twos, that way there is competition for the food. If you have one that is a picky eater, just put another baby in with him and watch him eat it before that other guy can get it!

That's true Yvonne.. how many times have we seen babies decide that what the other guy has looks better! That covers the whole "Baby-Kingdom" .. tho.. doesn't it?

Why thank you Cam!

I always encourage everyone to have at least 2 about the same age/size because they are so gregarious...

:\ that means Shiro needs a buddy... nah, she can join the other two, all in good time... And if I'm REALLY lucky, between the three of them I'll end up with 1.2 Now wouldn't that rock? Wonder what that morph x Shiro would look like! (Gosh, this baby needs a name! Deontay says "Morpheus" but that's kinda cheesy! LOL!)

but now you're saying babies do well with buddies... my Hermann's baby... all alone... and the Leo. yearling.... sooo lonely... you know that you people don't help the whole "no more buying" thing, don't you?!?! :p Well we'll see what I find at this April 5 Reptile Show I'm going to in Chi-town!

So Terry, who small are these guys... this morph baby? and Bucklebury? I haven't a clue as to what to expect sizewise... I mean I know like under 3" but beyond that I'm clueless!

I think our man has a good idea.. "Morpheus" isn't bad at all!
