I love them already. The bottom one is Gussie; she (just guessing gender) is slightly bigger, super greedy for worms, and interestingly has uncolored tubercles along her side, they are the same pink as the rest of her sides. Finknottle, meanwhile, has pale orange tubercles and a barely visible black pinpoint at the top of most of his (or her) skin bumps. So it will be much easier than I thought to tell them apart!
As you may have noticed, Finknottle has a bad arm, I think his buddy chomped it in transit. There's no other bruising or stress so I don't think it was jostling, and they're from a forum member so he confirmed it happened overnight. Reading up it seems like it may heal in a week or two? He's not using or moving it at all, but it didn't seem to interfere with feeding. The skin color on it is uneven; don't know if it's scrapes or just bruising but the skin appears unbroken, so I'll keep an eye on it and hope for the best.
