    Their personality is very different from a jungle carpet though. Also, the have the most adorable little bulldog heads.
    Here's one recent-ish picture of him. He just shed, so I'll post a couple new photos soon.
    Thanks for the nice comments everyone! He's really something special.

    No worries, I have the exact same luck. Little buggers decide to shed at the worst possible times.

    How do you have your girl set up? I've heard a lot of different things regarding lighting etc. and I'm curious how you do it.

    Right now, I have her set up in a 4 foot cage. On paper. I have a over head heat source at 75 degrees. then i have a UAB basking light, only comes on for 6 hours, that gets to about 95 degrees. a couple of hides and water. She gets one medium crawler rat once a week.

    When she sheds this weekend I will get some pictures posted.

    Has anyone ever figured out how to get these to reproduce in captivity yet?

    I've been looking for one of these guys and the few breeders I have talked to haven't had any luck and a couple are giving up the project. I believe Pro Exotics has their pair for sale. I will have one some day:)

    Saw those two in person a few weeks ago and they are gorgeous! I definitely want one some day as well.

    Richie, she's beautiful!!!! How old is she?

    And yeah, no one's found out how to breed them yet. There's been a couple successful clutches but nothing regular. There are some guys working on it though.
