I purchased a little leo from TortsRUs a few weeks ago and now it's finally big enough to come live with me. It's been hard to wait this long, I'm very impatient, but I only have to wait one more day. These are pictures that TortsRUs sent me. He was great to deal with. He consistently sent me updates and pictures ever since I picked one out.

Haha, yeah I agree. She is a cutie. Looks like a painting not real life.

I purchased my first Leopard from them. Here he is, almost 2 years later :p
They are a great source and I recommend them all the time!

Yours is beautiful. I hope mine has some white like that, but either way I am just happy to have it.

I love the ones with split/extra scutes. I picked it out just because of that. :D

Ok so after waiting what seemed like days this morning, she finally arrived. She was alert when I pulled her out of the box and then I soaked her for a bit. As soon as I put her into the enclosure she took off exploring. Extremely fast little thing. I haven't named her yet, and I refer to her as a her because of the extra scutes up front. Hopefully she does indeed turn out to be a she.

Sorry it took so long to update. I had to work and then my internet was acting up.

She is very distinctive-looking with the two tiny extra coastals at the front of the carapace. I would have picked that one too.

Totally agree with you

Me too. I'm excited to see how those scutes look as they grow. She's pretty unique.
