Yet another new person (dial up warning)

Hi, I'm new around here so I figure I'd better start off with a quick into of me and the gang... I'd be Rhiannon, but on to the most important part... all my children

First is Apollo... she is my 6 year old red tail boa. She's quite small at 7' and only 10 lbs. She eats every two weeks, but just doesn't seem to grow. I have taken her to the vet and she's has a clean bill of health so I don't worry too much.

Next is Osiris. He's my gentle giant. He was being "thrown out" by a breeder at a reptile show because he was past his prime and they no longer had a use for him, so I gladly took him home. He's 8' and 25 lbs and a big puppy dog.

My prehensile tailed skink Peeve. I made a thread in the reptiles forum about her. She's wonderful and the joy of my life

(there's plenty more pics of her in the other thread)

And my wonderful array of mountain horned dragons. I have both A. Lepidogaster and A. Capra... here's a few pics of some of them:

And last, but not least my columbian tegu Trogdor. For being a columbian he's coming along not too bad. He's a bit skittish getting him out of the tank, but once out is really great. And surprisingly loves the fruits and veggies. Most of all he enjoys when I give him a treat of the he mush I make up for the crested geckos

I also have a copious amount of crested geckos, bit not a lot of decent photos of them to throw up here.

thank you!

Apollo's great, and she must of been the runt... every two weeks she's eating a 395-475g rabbit (depending on the size I have in my freezer), but doesn't put on much weight or girth... she has just had quite the growth spurt in length over the past year though... out of no where she grew 10". She has a totally different personality than Osiris when it comes to feeding. She's extreemly aggressive where as if you choose to you could feed him by hand.
