    Calendar Shoot Photos

    I like all of them ... but as a Graphic Designer by trade --- the first one --- the close up is by far the best. The detail is toooooooooooooooooooo die for. I would use the first one for sure hands down.

    Caring for Crickets

    Question on Shedding ...

    When I got home today, I could see that she is beginning to shed, starting with her nose, and right around her mouth. Her tail seems to start getting that whitish look to it, but when I gave her a bath, the white faded a little, but I am sure it will be white again tomorrow.

    BD tried to jump onto rock in backround photo . .

    I have had the background for a couple of weeks, and DJ still trys to jump in, it is way too funny to watch. Sometimes she'll get on her hammock and try to jump that way. It doesn't seem to hurt her, so I figure it was ok to leave it up.
