My DP's first shed! (lots of pics - dial up warning)

Well, Zeph finally shed yesterday and I was home to watch, I was so excited that I grabbed the camera but disturbed him rubbing against his tree and he went into his hide to finish the shed. Still managed to watch and take lots of pics while he was in there. It's such an incredible thing to watch, I hope I get to see the next one too. His colourings have come out more, with a little more yellow showing. In fact, my friend who was over yesterday and I both think he has a greenish tinge to him, which is weird and the camera didn't really capture it very well. So without further adieu here are the pics... be warned there's going to be a stack of them, I can't help myself!

Hopefully they're not too big, I resized all of them....

RE: My DP

Miffy, what a shame Daisy shed whilst you were sleeping, hopefully you'll catch the next one. Would love to see some new pics of her once you take some!

Serpant_Lady, I reckon he'll eat the camera once he gets bigger just so I stop taking so many photos of him!!

RE: My DP

Hey tempest, I have always loved watching them shed, it is simply an amazing thing. He looks very nice, especially in the 6th picture.

RE: My DP

Thanks everyone, as you can tell by all the photos I'm smitten with him. Can't wait to get another... but it's going to have to wait a while unfortunately.

DiamondAsh, do you have any pics of Ash after its shed?

Hey Dames, I didn't end up putting the background in the other day, that's tonight's project. It's not going to look anything near as good as yours but hopefully it will lift the look of the viv a bit. I'll post a few pics once it's in.
