Hi there,
Thank you so much for your concern and offering help, I really appreciate it! The babies made it. They were very cold, one was wet from urine and the other was upside down in his container. The heat pack must have only been a 24 hour one because it was cold as well! I had my doubts about the babies for a day or two, I was so upset and worried, but after spending a couple of days on a heating pad that I wrapped in a towl, they are doing much better. They are eating and moving around. One of them didn't start moving around until today. I called vet after vet, but none of them treat reptiles in my area. I was willing to even drive out of town, or state to get them to a vet, but my local vet couldn't find anyone that treated reptiles. They are truely survivors! Looking at them now, you wouldn't know that they just arrived from a terrible journey! Once again, thank you so much! Happy Holidays!

: I couldn't find an email address on you, please call
: if you get them and are frantic, I'll try to help.
: (910) 868-1750 niki & teddy

: I feel terrible for you, and to think I was upset
: because my lightbulbs are late.
