My Hypo Diffused has just arrived. He's soooooo tiny. Only a month old. I've weighed him (6g!!!Awwwh!) and had a good look at him before putting him into his new home.

I was surprised by how unphased by the whole thing he seemed to be. He didn't try to jump for freedom and only curled into an s shape when I first picked him up out of the travel tub.

Snapped a few cheeky pictures whilst transferring him but I don't know how well they'll come out. I'll have a look later on and maybe put some up on here for you guys to see

I think I will name him 'Titan'

It's going to be a long wait until I can handle him properly...

Oh bless him! I forgot to weigh mine, think I'll do it before I feed him.
I think Titan is an awesome name :D He sounds like he's gonna be a nice little fellow.

Pictures!

Unfortunately almost all of them are so blurry that they are not even worth putting up. Ugh. Desperately need a new camera!

However there were two which are almost passable.

Titan



Exploring his new home.

It's not a very big box but it looks huge for him!

He's happily curled up in the cool hide at the moment I think. Little cutie.

I'm going to have to find some little pinkies for him so that I have something small enough for him to manage when he's settled in. The pinkies I have at the moment weigh half as much as he does!!!

Thank you Compared to him Apollo seems so huge (he's not. 43g at last weigh in)

I'm looking forward to watching him grow up and to see his colours change as he sheds. He has only shed once so I think he's going to be a bright boy!

The only problem is, now I have two boys so I need to get some girls I'm going to have a houseful of corns at this rate

How long after the first shed do they normally shed for the second time? Does it follow the same pattern for normal sheds? Every 4-6weeks?
