Hey Mama! Yay, glad to hear that! I was afraid this camera wouldn't be able to capture much.

I'm sure they're out there, but probably either WC or extremely expensive. Keep an eye on local classifieds - that's how I found my first group. Or ask around in your local herp groups. Good luck!

Right?! Gabe is only a couple cm taller right now, and not for long. Watching these two play together is a delight.

As you should. Have you seen that Wicken's Wicked Reptiles has been working with them and showing them off on UA-cam a bit too? I can't wait to see how he does his new enclosure for them!

I saw some of that content. We didn't get a very good look at the enclosure, iirc. Love that channel though. You Canadians have some awesome herptubers

If you get a chance to see the livestream tonight I'd be happy to do a "facility" tour and show off the animals here :)

Hi JL. I'm trying really really hard right now to keep my monkey tail family. I'm spending my last dollars to try to upgrade their enclosure. If I can't figure that out in the next week or two I might still have to rehome them, but I really don't want to. We'll see how it goes :)

@@melsexotics it can be so heart-breaking. Your animals are beautiful. I kept a corucia years ago and have been considering adding one as a teaching animal. I take to venues and schools as a hobby. A local pet store has a juvenile and in considering if I want to get it I'm cruising youtube for anything I can find. Here is my info: zoocrewkids.blogspot.com/

I will warn you that almost everyone who gets one corucia ends up getting multiple. I find them excellent ambassador animals once they've settled and trust their handler, but you can't hand them off to people like with many other species, because the nails alone are enough to cut people. That said in my experience they love interacting with people (especially if those people have food), but I know not everyone has that experience with them, some are just downright aggressive I'm told. I'm currently trying to design an ideal enclosure upgrade for my family unit of corucia. I've learnt a lot over the past year with them and think I can design something that they'll really like.

I have never introduced MTS, I bought my current "family unit" of skinks already living together, possibly imported together, I'm not sure. I do absolutely recommend these animals have the opportunity to live with other MTS, and most people who get one quickly end up getting more to try to cohab them. They really do best with a compatible family group.

@@melsexotics I checked another source just now that have zoo bred yearlings available. They have informed me that one of the animals has already been an ambassador and is pretty stable temperamentally. Hopefully can make a good decision on this

A CBB young animals that's already used to human contact would probably be ideal for an ambassador animal.

That's a great idea, just got that post up. Probably won't get much traction so late, but at least we tried :) EDIT: I can't wait to see you again, maybe in March?!

Thank you Grace! Yes, it's so nice to start feeling like myself again. Time to celebrate :) Thank you for the lovely comment!

@@melsexoticsHi! My name is actually Ollie. I know that's what my account says but due to certain circumstances I'm unable to change it. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks!

Ok Ollie, no problem and sorry for the misname. I can't promise I'll remember (I have some memory issues), but I'll try. Feel free to correct me if I ever get it wrong again :)

Hiya! Thankfully I've had "mild" symptoms, but it was several days of fever, lots of brain fog and body aches, appetite issues (and loss of taste), etc. Only a bit of a cough thankfully, and no really bad symptoms. I'm improving every day, but I didn't expect it to mess with me so much. Thankfully I have lots of people around me helping me keep things going while I'm incapped. Can I ask how long until you felt "normal" again, if you do?

@@melsexotics hey I've had approx 14 symptoms through this. I don't feel better to live my life, I have terrible tiredness, my legs hurt as my muscles are solid and tight, I can't walk far without getting tired, shortness of breath and battling to get my voice back after I lost it due to a throat infection last month. I used to be able to do a 12 hour day and still run for the bus after work. This is a devastating virus that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.

That sounds absolutely awful. I feel very lucky that I seem to have skipped most of the "bad" symptoms, but I still feel so "diminished" right now. My mom is still recovering, now fighting a throat infection herself. My great aunt is hospitalized. This illness is insane, I also would not wish it on anybody. I hope both of our symptoms ease up soon. Best of luck to you, friend!

@@melsexotics hope you and your family make a full recovery.

Hey ...if you're energy hasn't changed not sure if you've tried this if. I have felt different in the past couple of days. QI Ribose or D Ribose for people with ME, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and fibromyalgia.

They are hard to find, though sometimes importers have them. However then you have to be ready for health issues unfortunately. CBB animals are rare.

Sorry friend, I wasn't able to make the expo due to covid. Did you have fun there?

Thank you Karen. I'm slowly improving :)

I missed the beginning part as I was in the bathroom when my mom started it and I didn’t notice until I watched it again and forgot to update my comment sorry. Also I hope you feel better! And it was a lot of fun I wish you had been there.

No worries, friend. I am feeling much better already, thank you! I hope to see you at the next expo or get-together :)

I meant to put this on my post lol must of clicked the wrong one
