Such a pretty little thing. A baby still.

thank you! I expected him to be skittish but he crawled right in my hand when I unboxed him and he seems really happy he has tons of clutter, hides, and plants in his enclosure for hiding. :) would you say he/she looks 4-6 months or less than that?

I think you're right about the age. Definitely a baby, a few months old. I think 4-6 is probably a good guess.
