Re: Omg I just got my first baby bp
then I am going to wait it out - I don't want to jinx anything. I will wait until next Thursday and offer then. I sure hope the poor girl isn't starving. She settled into her hides within the first 20 minutes and she's only been out of them late at night I caught her snooping around but then she ended up back in her hide. She is sooooo cute. I really am anxious to be able to hold her but I totally understand the rules about letting them settle in so I will resist the urge - lol

Trust me I know how hard this can be... It is all I can do not to handle them every day.

Its hard to resist! I wanna hold my new pickup so bad. She's just so cuddly and BIG! Oh well, hopefully adults acclimate faster than babies! :)
Re: Omg I just got my first baby bp
When I picked up my new Albino baby from the breeder I did notice that her skin was a little wrinkly and her eyes were pink instead of red. Since I have never had an Albino I wasn't sure what to look for in regards to an impending shed. Well, it turns out that she was going into a shed when I got her last Thursday and this morning I found pieces of shed in her tub. I felt sooo bad because I didn't know she was going into shed and didn't increase her humidity.
She managed to get her face, neck and eyecaps off and then I soaked her for a bit and let her crawl thru a washcloth which got the rest of the shed off. I pride myself on all of my babies having one piece sheds so I was devastated that this happened.
She seems to have such a wonderful temperment - she tolerated the soaking just fine. I think I was more upset about it than her - lol.
