ok, no pics yet. the 2 that i took came out too blurry and i havent had time to take any more.
i was at the home depot this weekend picking up some things for the house and as it happens, they have a petco across the street. i do shop there often to get things for my dog and other misc supplies.. and of course browse the reptiles. most of the time they have some stupid buys and bad set ups. nothing out of the ordinary as everyone knows. i've also been looking a little more closely seeing other people posting of their good finds there.
upon looking i found a nice sized juvie partial pinstripe possible female. i handled her and she seemed pretty healthy although a little thin. for $60, i figured this was a pretty good deal so i snatched her up. she's been eating like a pig since.. a full milk cap of CGD and baby food the first nite, 5 or 6 crickets plus about 1/2 a cap of the same mix and going strong. i'll post a pic when i can.
my only question is about what size sexing might become apparent. i've read that at somewhere between 4 and 6 months it happens, but since the petco employee was totally clueless (suprise!! lol) i was wondering if anyone has any ideas. she's about approx 13 grams now... maybe more as this was when i brought her home.

. I picked up a couple of female cresties, both harli's from sandfire for a $100 for the pair. They are both doing awsome and might be able to breed this year. Congrats Scott!
