So send my wee black nippers back to be w/ their sister & I'll write up a Clelia caresheet :)
On the guardian front...I dont see any significant care issues at least for BTC that arent already imbedded in the standard couperi sheets. The only 2 concepts missing IMO are the need for excercise, especially in the adults & perhaps more arguable...tho I base this on the relatively number of infertile egg clutchs)...the need for maintaining a more natural diet than most captives get. So Id suggest you cut n paste the basic care sheet for each one w/ the header being the name/subspps/ & a good photo.

::Do you want actual complete caresheets, or will little tidbits we have picked up over the years help too?

:What would work best would be some actual caresheets for the different subspecies. Pictures can be added too.

:I think the little tidbits are great to add spice to this forum, but I'm wanting to post more stuff that someone, who wants to begin working with a subspecies, can use as a model for their own husbandry practices.

:Pretty soon babies are gonna start hatching and all the people who want to begin working with these animals are gonna have lots of BASIC questions. Some good caresheets should fill this need.
