We have a male and juvenile female that we are intending to breed next year. Our male is turning the most amazing yellow colour, it is becoming more pronounced with each shed, and it also appears that he has some carrot tail in him as well.
Let me know if you intend to sell any of the hatchlings, I would definitely be interested.

1.1.0 Hyla cinerea
0.1.0 Ceratophrys ornata
1.0.0 Anolis carolinensis
0.1.0 Anolis sagrei

Wow, very pretty. Look like normals to me? I prefer normal leos than morphs tbh. Although, you can't beat a super snow, or jungle mack snow.... lovely!.

What morphs are on plan for next season shep?

Gorgeous lil fellas.

Might be a silly question, but how often do Leo's shed? We've had Mojo almost/if not two months, and he hasn't shed yet? Either that or he's so fast at it we haven't noticed? His pattern has changed though and he is a fair bit bigger than when we got him?

Collection:
Sphodoromantis Lineola - African Lined Mantis
P.Ocellata - Spiny Flower Mantis

Phyllocrania Paradoxa - Ghost Mantis
Bearded Dragon - Draco
Leopard Gecko - Mojo
Corn Snake - Bella
Cali King Snake - Rorschach

they eat there skin when they shed so u wont see any skin left but sometimes they might leave a tiny bit, he will have shed a few times with u, u ca tell when they are going to shed as they go a light milky colour sort of faded if u know wot i mean they shed about every 2-3 weeks when young
