Cool my baby blueys

hello my children,
I got a second fish tank and put the bigger of my 26 blueys in it so it would give the smaller guys a chance to grow. I spent a while watching them as i gave them a bowl of chicken mince, pieces of corn, bearded dragon pellets and a raw egg. They could not race over to the food fast enough.
I noticed that the bigger guys of the group got to eat first then the smaller guys that where game enough got to have a feed. I decided that i would divide the enclosures and put the biggest babies in the second tank. here are some pictures. Oh yeah i also give them pinky rats and pinky mice. They love it.
I hope you enjoy my pictures and feel free to leave me a comment

Why do you have so many little ones? Didn't want to sell them? Or couldn't?

blueys

I have the baby blueys inside fish tanks for the winter and have my four adults outside. I am currently making a large aviary into a blue tongue enclsoure. Will be great once done.

today i defrosted one to many quails. The blue tongues where very appreciative of that as they ploughed straight onto it and it was gone all in no time.

Just waiting for my pay to come in the mail on monday. Then i will be buying some bags of cement to concrete the bottoms of the big aviary. I will then add the accesories with the setup of the enclosure. It will look unreal once assembled completely. i went out with a few friend in a car with a trailer. We went out to the bush and brought back heaps of stumps and hollow logs. I will be making many more trips back and collecting rocks and will be adding plenty of plants. I may even setup a waterfall with a pond inside.

I thought that taking rocks from the bush wasn't allowed :S Maybe I've been out in the sun too long >.O
