Ladies first, so we'll start with Guinevere. I spent this past week re-doing her FR with one of my shelving units that I pulled out from storage. She seems pretty pleased, she's gained more room and more wide-open space (she's so big she doesn't like being in thick plants, I think she gets tangled up and they don't hold her up).
If she looks unhappy it's because I'm wearing white and navy stripes and that's the one thing she won't tolerate from me.
Up next is a little guy I picked up locally. Someone here in Miami found me through my blog and asked me if I would take on the Meller's that they had purchased a month ago and no longer wanted. I went to check him out and he looked great, really, with big round eyes, good color, and a strong grip. He must be under a year old, he's not half as big as Guin. So I've had him now for almost 2 weeks and he's doing really well - eating everything, drinking well, and adjusting to life with me. Fingers crossed that he continues to do well in the coming weeks.
Anyone who knows me knows that I don't like giving gender neutral names so I've decided that with these mystery guys I'll just alternate between male and female names with each one until proven otherwise.
So I've settled on Thaddeus for him.
He is across the house from Guin until he finishes his quarantine and I get everything with him checked out.
