As promised.  Here are some pictures of the new addition.  Still no name but the kids are leaning towards Falcor.  I think Falcor is an ancient Chinese luck dragon.  She is a cute thing and feeding her is a lot of fun.  She attacks the crickets with a vengeance.  We found that her habitat was about 10 degrees cooler than it should have been so we added a ceramic heater.  Now the hot end of her terrarium gets up to about 100 F and the cool end up to about 85 in the day.  At night when the heat light goes off the whole habitat is about 80 F.

Ian and I went to a cub scout troop meeting tonight to check out a den we are thinking of joining.  It seems like a great group with good kids and a very active bunch of adults.  We will probably end up joining them but Ian wants to think about it.  All of the kids go to another school so he was a little intimidated.  His school doesn't have a cub scout program so we had to go looking.
