I came home from vacation to find Cuzco in the process of stripping! I came back an hour later to find him very proud of his freshly shed self. He was looking absolutely unreal, so despite his protests, I HAD to take a couple of pictures.

Without flash:

I can't get over how OLIVE colored he is. Now if only we could work out his anger issues...

His future mate, Yzma, was also looking pretty snazzy. Yzma and I have an arrangement worked out. She has a small sterilite tub in her boaphile, with a hole cut in the side. When it's time to clean the cage, we can usually find her already inside her tub, so we just remove the tub, keep a close eye on her, and clean out her cage. She HATES being hooked, and really dislikes hands gloved or not, but she seems perfectly at ease with this little routine. Hey, whatever works, right?

Here she is in her little transport tub (with flash):

And no-flash so you can see all her pretty pinks:

And a quick couple of snapshots of our littlest Peruvian, Inca. She's exploring the spare townhouse while her cage gets a nice soaking.

That tail!!
