My collection at this point
Nothing super exciting. :) Everyone got cleaned and weighed today, and I noticed that some of them had just shed and looked pretty and I had a convenient place to photograph them in, so I decided to go for it. The "photo box" is actually just a partial rabbit hutch that I haven't finished painting (it's fully dry though! just haven't added the second and third coats) so it isn't pure white, but ehh. It works, and mostly I just needed a white background and a way to contain the wigglies.
Anyways! On to the pics. There are quite a few here because I ended up taking a lot and...yeah.
Pictures now!
These are Matika, my 04, 2455g girl who started it all. She made photographing her hard because she followed me! As a size reference, that box she's in is 4 feet long and 18 inches wide and 18 inches deep.

Next is Draccy. Supposed to be an 04 female. She's 1560g now.

Here's Lara Croft. She's unknown age, was found in someone's yard loose a few years back and I took her in. These are the first pics of her I've put up I think...she's taken a long time to get her up to weight. She was 1000ish grams and as long as Matika when I got her, and is up to 1882g today. Yey! Also, note the scar on her head. She had an infection in it when I first got her and it was a pain to restrain her long enough to clean and medicate it. It healed, though...

Basilica! She's an 07 girl who eats like a pig but grows weirdly slow. She's only 900 grams, and eats every week without fail. *shrug* Pretty girl, though!!! I'd like to breed her someday.

And last but not least, my beastly little boy named Sir Ulrich von Lichtenstein, weighing in at a grand total of...14 grams! He's a corn, obviously. And he's an albino stripe, in shed, so kinda dull. Uhwell.

Thank you! I've been holding off on putting pictures of her up because she really looked bad for a while. You could see ribs when I got her, and she had lots of open wounds. She's progressed a lot--no longer hisses and attempts to strike me every time I open her tub now! She just freaks out and tries to hide, lol, but I guess that's better than insane aggression. Used to be I had a constant "SSSSS!" whenever I cleaned her cage or changed her water.
