And dangit!! Today is exactly 3 months since i ordered my 3 T25s and they didnt ship!! It's going to be another one of those 13 week shipments i bet :mad:
Yeah I called AP yesterday because I need my t25 before I pack my moving truck to avoid $30 extra on freight shipping. She said they'll finish it next week and ship the week of the 24th. They're definitely a bit behind this summer

You've got a solid crew there Sauzo! I wish I could add more to my crew but I feel I would be stretched a bit thin with more than three critters at the moment, 4 including my partner's yorkie who drives me up the wall... maybe if/or when Gerald fathers a clutch I'll keep a baby, but that's a lot of retic piss to be cleaning basically every day

Yeah, I'm not sure how many retics i could handle. They definitely take a lot more than the boas. The work i put into Caesar with spot cleaning and overall cleaning is about the equivalent of all the boas together haha.
The little ones only poop probably once every 3 weeks or so and Vicky and Rosey poop probably every 2-3 weeks. Caesar is just a poo and pee machine. I generally am lucky if i get a month out of his substrate. The boas can go 2-3 months before i run out of substrate from spot cleaning and need to do full cleanings.
And thanks. I love all my guys and gals. I'll definitely be adding a Gila Monster and at the moment, either a Pucallpa Peruvian BCC, a Peruvian long tail BCL or another SD retic. From what i've gathered, Gilas are pretty messy so he/she will probably be like a less cuddly version of Caesar, at least for a year or 2 until we build up trust and I get brave enough to try to free hand him. Until then, i will be using one thick leather welders glove for the toothy end and free hand the back end so he/she gets used to my touch. And the BCL or BCC will probably be like Gina who is really easy to care for.
And Harley laid her 2nd clutch this year. First was 23 eggs and last week was another 20 eggs. She's getting to be a pro at it haha. The first time we both were freaking out. Now i knew what to expect and so did she. She just dug in her sandbox and dumped out the 20 eggs and then i gave her a good soak and filled her up on her hornworms lol.
