royals are a snake of major contradictions,they are either the best feeders in the world Very Happy

or totally the worst in the world Crying or Very sad

most do quite well these days,people know a lot more about how to keep em and to also expect a bit of a fast every now and then.if you feel confident enough to get one go for it!!do as you say and get a started baby that is feeding well.do go putting it in a massive viv though,comapct and bijou Wink

thats what them babies like

what do you guys keep baby royals in as they need small enclosures and do you get one when you by the royal at a show

lol yeah that was meant to say 'dont put in a massive viv' i start my babies of in cadbury boxes then they go into medium conti's and then into cb70's.im sure you would be able to get the setup from a show but it would be better to have it in place beforehand

I would go for a contico..a medium sized one would cost about £10-12 from a shop and they are ideal.
