My crested pair have arrived from lizard wizard. Been waiting ages for the weather to be o.k. to have them shipped.
Unrelated pair from unrelated parents, will take more pics when they have warmed up, literally the male eating a smoothie off one of my lads fingers was less than 10 mins after they where delivered.
Female is 9 months old and male is 7 months old. Will weigh them after buy new scales from wilkies.

Not got anything left at the moment though.

Thanks all

Got to admit when they first arrived I was chuffed, then went off them a bit, BUT now they have settled in I am really pleased, I ahve put tehm together because one of the tanks I set up wasn't right and they get on great, often in the morning they will be together.

I feed them a mixture of organic baby fruit and CGD mixed, about 70:30 they will eat this off my finger, not observed them eating it out of the tub.
To this I add calcium and a tiny bit of reptivite.

They eat small to medium crickets(dusted with calcium) , they are (in my opinion rubbish at hunting, one crestie got a cricket and a mouthful of peetmoss, it let the cricket go and ate the peat) so I use a ceramic container and put crickets in it, they jump in it to get the crickets.
Bit young yet, just practising Very Happy
I am starting to understand why people get hooked on these Very Happy

Well my Gauranteed sexed pair have turned out to be two males.
Cost me £240 plus £25 delivery and now I have 2 males that are worth less than hatchlings, because as someone pointed out, an hatchling could be a female.

Will the Lizard wizard not refund you your money? If they guaranteed the sex, surely you are entitled to your money back? Sad So sorry for you, this must be awful.

if the sex is guarranteed i would imagine they would have to offer a swap of some sort or money back. some sort of recompense anyway.

If guarenteed then you are entireled to a refund/exhange under the sale of goods act. You were sold something that was wrong advertised and they have a duty by law to provide you with what was advertised. hope it sorts out
