Just picked up this female mojave. She's a little thin because she was on a 10 day feeding schedule. Right now she's ~820g. I wasn't planning on getting any new females for a while, but the deal was too good. Now she's happy in quarantine for the next couple months
Herps are cool.
One of the attractions of outdoor pursuits activities for many people is that life is reduced to the barest essentials, and in the process a more intimate connection to the natural world is established. Food that would be trashed or fed to the dog at home tastes wonderful, a cup of murky water is much appreciated, and after a few days, even a thin sleeping pad can feel like a comfortable mattress as tired bones are able to rest after a hard day's work.
