    UPDATE pics of "Slevin", my rescue!
    I couldn't help but share a few quick pictures of "Slevin" (previously "Sam").

    Rescued him from a local YMCA who had him as a class pet (took over a year of convincing before they let me take him). Was kept on hamster bedding, nothing covering the mesh top, approx. 20% humidity and NO heat source. Plus all he had was a large half log and a "rock" water bowl covered in algae. He rarely ate, was severely dehydrated, under weight, and had a LOT of stuck shed.

    Brought him home, set up everything correctly, and got the stuck shed off. I've been feeding him every 5 days for almost one month now. He's an aggressive eater and has yet to refuse a meal with me! :)

    (This was one week after I brought him home, right before I helped get his shed off)

    And this was about 20minutes ago :)
    Not so great pictures because he DID NOT want to stay still and was very curious of my camera.
    Now, if I set him down next to me he'll crawl straight into my lap lol
