Re: Quarantine *rasberry*
I had it with those Zilla things after an hour. Complete garbage and I pity anyone that has them. For those of you that do and find them acceptable: I envy you.
I took the Kings' two-way thermometers and used them instead. 10 degree difference.
I'm getting a couple two-location thermo-hygrometers from Big Apple, same as my other two-locaters. For $4.00 extra, they're far more than simply worth it.
Well. They got here this morning.
They somehow managed to be sent to the wrong address, and only by the grace of Heaven smiling on me today did my UPS driver recognize my name and remember the snakes were being delivered. He found them at a UPS store about 10 minutes from the correct address - which is weird, considering I Google'd / copied / pasted the address and have a dozen times, getting at least three things delivered here per week.
I can't say enough about these two. Nero is the dead-sexiest baby I own, hands-down. His True-blood tail is to die for, and I cannot wait to get home and see him. He was calm as a button, looking around, no snaps, no hisses or jukes. He was roaming every inch of his ginormous tub when I left. I'm worried it's too big for him - fitting in the palm of my hand as he does - but the heating takes up 1/3 of that cage and he found it right away. After warming up for 10 minutes and becoming less dark, he was swinging from the ceiling.
Telaisien was equally calm, not particularly interested in taking my hand off. He went straight in to his water-dish, swam around it for a moment then went straight underground.
Both are perfectly proportioned, apparently mite-free, bright clear eyes, clean mouths, no kinks or caked vents. Positively beautiful babies.
I'll take pictures of Nero when I go home tonight and Telaisien if he's reappeared.
