    Water & weigh ins
    Had to give everybody fresh water today so I grabbed a couple of quick pics. All without flash.

    Shredder is starting to get a little size to him. He weighed in at 477g (empty) today.

    Trinity just had her first meal with me 4 days ago so she's got a ways to go. Today she's a slim and trim 225g.

    S'ven is starting to color up a bit. I can't wait to see his next few sheds. He seems to be growing a little slower than my jungle and coastal. Slow and steady works for me too. He tipped the scales at 116g today. Up 28g from his last weigh in on 4/11.

    They are all looking good ziggy. I'll be glad when shag and Edith get some shredder size to
    them.

    They all look great and are growing up nicely Ziggy. Keep up the good work. I know I'm loving our carpets.

    Thanks guys. The camera kinda mutes out the jungle's yellows a bit. We've all added some really cool carpets to our collections recently. It's great to see their popularity growing.

    @ Term- These guys grow fast. My coastal has grown very impressively. He was 85g and maybe a bit undersized when he arrived on 9/2/15. He was 842g at his last weigh in on 4/19/16. I'm pretty sure he's a smidge over 900g now.

    @ Lou- Carpets have taken over for me :). I still love my colubrids but I don't see me adding any more. There are at least 4 more different carpets that I want but I'm only buying 1 more!

    They look great Zig! :)

    Shredder reminds me so much of my Esmarelda. They seem to be about the same size. I don't weigh, but she is between 3.5 - 4 feet and the girth of a half-dollar at roughly 1.5 years old.

    I feel like she has grown just this past 1-2 weeks! Probably the way she fills out her new larger perch, deceiving looks. Time for a larger enclosure. :)

    Esmarelda, JCP, in usual hunt mode on her new perch 2 days after feeding.

    Sorry about the stain on the glass obstructing her pattern.

    Nice trio!

    I have a very, very picky coastal mix. She is over 6 feet long coming up on 3 years old but she goes long periods with no food.

    Funny thing is she has eaten a 1 pound rabbit before so when she does eat she goes big.

    I really want a Bredli!!

    Yes, carpets are getting more popular but I think that some people are still intimidated by their "nippiness" even though it is short lived and really more comical than painful. Beyond that I love them to pieces even though I did just get my first boa and she is awesome as well.

    Reinz - she is looking beautiful as always. Isabel disappears in her hide for two days after feeding and once she reemerges she back to basking and curiosity

    Ziggy - I feel you, it hard to not want more carpets. I know I'm not done with them yet. Good luck on one more :)
