As a first tort I would go for Hermann's. But then I am biased as I have them.

trice hunni bunny, you'll get a female horsfield..then you'll let deemo meet her a few times to relieve some stress just kidding hun.

But from a logical/care point of view, horsfields are the easier to keep providing you provide deep substrate and outdoor space

Was loads of nice stuff there, just unfortunately most of it out of my price range...some real bargains on hatchling corns going on though!

Yes don`t worry,i wouldn`t have had the lil baby without paperwork, its all present and correct as far as i can see

Here`s my little Shelly (very original name courtesy of my 3 year old son!)
