New additions (part 1)

I got this little guy last night, in a trade. I have attached pics of what I gave up for him. One problem is he has a coating of some type of oil on him. I've been wiping it gently with very little progress. Any suggestions?

Great Star Keith Big Grin Try a little soap and water to get the oil off.

Ummm.....the pair of uros (uromastyx lizards) in the pictures for the star tortoise.

I wasn't really looking for a star, but it was just too good of a deal to pass up.
