Hopefully Bast comes back with news of new Versi babies, and possibly a B.smithi :).

I'm back!! My computer completely crapped out on me :( Got it up and running (sort of) and awaiting a new system in a couple of weeks. Still just have the 3 t's, although I did hear from the guy about the Versi's, the sac was good and everything was good to go, but that was awhile ago...sent him a msg and just hoping he still has some left. Missed you all!! Oh, almost forgot, Chaos moulted again three days ago and we moved the little devil into a new home. It was getting a little nerve wracking to feed her...and had two (almost) escapes. Super glad that I always put her deli inside of a 10 gallon when I fed her lol. Hope all of you have been doing well :)

The only thing I'm kinda nervous about is them getting out during feeding time. I just had so many heart attack moments when Chaos bolted for freedom at feeding time LOL. These guys are A LOT smaller than Chaos was/is. It's so much easier to deal with them when they are in larger enclosures, much more wiggle room for feeding/maintenance. I think it's just because these will be my first experience with really teeny slings...so I'm probably working myself up over nothing LOL.

They Will be fine. The b Smithi Will be too busy admiring itself in the mirror to think about legging it :)

Should be getting the new babies within the next couple of weeks. Cade was so happy about the smithi that he was literally jumping up and down lol.
