Got them all out for their monthly weigh and measure, and everyone is doing well! I think I may up the feed of Boa to more often, as he just doesn't seem to be getting bigger, and considering he's the same age as Dexter, he seems VERY tiny! Widget is now on small rat pups to try and up his weight, as he is still a toblerone x.x He's starting to worry me, but he's still active, and still grumpy XD Anyway, here are their measuring photos X3
Ripley; 30", 94g
Widget; 24", 44g
Dexter; 20", 23g
Boa'tata; 16", 12g
Thanks for looking ^^ |

| Meant to add, Widget has retained some shed (they all recently shed, can you tell? XD) on his tail tip, and I was wondering if there is any 'best way' to get it off? I'm worried about giving him a bath, as I fear he's so aggressive already, I don't want him to lose all trust in me. |

| Try getting a very very damp piece of kitchen towel and just let his tail run through it when you have him out this normally loosens it and it slides off. He will need his tail to run through it several times though. OR get a glass of tepid water and place the end of his tail in it while you are holding him. Try and keep it in the water for a few minutes, remove tail and let the tail pass through some damp kitchen towel. Have found both of these methods work. :) |

| Thanks guys!! I'll definitely try these methods, maybe the bath as the last resort, cos he is just so untrustworthy! I find that his sheds are always rather peculiar, in that when I find it, its usually knotted into a ball, thoroughly glued together! Is that normal? |
