Meet my new quads :D

I just got 2 new quads from Underground Reptiles on friday and thought I'd share some pictures

This is Qadir





This is Cornelius





And these are their cages





Qadir is still pretty dark, but hopefully he will lighten up once he gets more settled in to his new surroundings. To make each cage, I cut the bottom out of a large Explorarium, stretched it over a 24" planter, and supported it with bamboo stakes.

Your darker quad was dark when I saw him in the store, I dont know what is wrong with him but when I observed them last week he was that same color, so I dont think he will lighten up.

They look awesome! I like the idea of stretching out the bottom over the plant pot. It looks good. Did it fray at all when you cut out the bottom?

They told me he was dark when I first called. He did lighten up some when he started drinking after I misted him yesterday morning, but went back by later in the day. I was thinking I would take them both to the vet for a check-up anyway since they're wild caught.

It didn't fray because the screen on the bottom is a seperate piece sewn to a strip of nylon.

What an awsome species!

Congratulations! I hope the dark guy acclimates soon for you
