I will post pics of my handy work once they are settled in.

One other thing, I am growing weed seeds in seed trays by my kitchen window, and they have shot up. I assume i will have to re pot them soon so they can grow on, only problem is, im in a flat with no garden, so will they be ok in normal flower pots??
About the same time I've had my hermann Aren't they lovely?

I'm not sure about the weeds I tried to grow some in my conservatory very unsuccesfully... but I'm lucky and have a nice supply in the garden. Someone will come along who can answer your question though I'm sure.

They are excellent, We bought them for the kids initially, but we all enjoy them much more than we expected to. They have real friendly characters and make me laugh with some of the stuff they get up to.

They never seem to walk arround each other, they just walk OVER one another.

I can just imagine that. I only have one but so wish I'd had two at the same time. I'm sure she'll be getting a little friend though eventually. I'll bet the adults in your house appreciate them far more than the kids in the end.

I think you may be right. I have gone from not really wanting any pets, to wanting a whole mini zoo in the space of 4 weeks. my shopping list now consists of leopard geckos, rankins dragons and tree frogs.

I have built the tort table in the kids bedroom so we can hopefully teach them how to care for them etc. They will feel more involved and hopefully more receptive to them if they have ownership.
