• In the past two days I have gotten emails asking about being requested to provide credit card info in order to register and also to make a post in the classifieds forums.

The only time any request for payment is made is if you choose to opt-in for a higher membership level, and that is done SOLELY through PayPal. Anything else is coming from a source other than this site. My guess is that this is coming through Google Adsense, but when I can get someone to send me a screen shot of this sort of request, I will know more.

And it looks like I somehow missed one, because I just found #25 perched on a fish tank on the other side of the room. No idea how he managed to get loose, but the 24 I put away yesterday are all accounted for.

And as soon as you do that, #26 will show up... ;-)

You jinxed me, Cliff. Look who I found hanging out on top of a gecko cage this morning. All other babies are accounted for, which makes this one #26. It had also just finished shedding, so I took the opportunity for some updated pics. I really love how the pattern is lightening up. Some of these guys are going to be really golden, like their father.

Hmmm.....#27, where are you?!

Haha. I didn't want to subject him to a bunch of pictures. He got some glue from a fly trap on his head and then had a large clump of dust and bedding stuck to it in a way that made it impossible to see. I think he spent the entire night trying to get it off, because when I picked him up, he was so exhausted that he was limp and barely moving. I put him right away so that he could recover. He seemed to be doing well last night, though, so maybe I can snap few pictures today.
 
here you go. #27, aka escapee #3. Looks like that day of resting in his water bowl did the trick. He's perfectly fine now. Tried to bite me quite a few times.

Awww why hello, #27!!! Aren't you the coolest thing!

(Pssstt....tell me where #28 is hiding!)

Haha. if I knew, I would pull it out of there. I have taken to going downstairs first thing in the morning, as that is when I always find one. I have been considering waking up in the middle of the night to go check, but I will be pretty mad if I wake up at 2 in the morning to go down there and don't find any.
 
Two bits of great news.

1) Number 28 fell off an air conditioning vent and almost landed on my head, but is doing just fine.

2) Since parturition, I have been offering a random 4 hatchlings a f/t day old chick thigh each week. Today, two of them ate. So, I've made 24 more and offered one to each baby. We'll see how many have eaten theirs by the morning, but I'm feeling pretty optimistic about the whole thing.
