    Baby Blue Not Eating

    I like to drive my guy crazy a bit. He act exactly the same as yours. He’s also 5 months this week. I am hoping he doesn’t go into brumation. I keep the basking at 120 and drop the heat a bit at night. I got my guys when he was 8 weeks old. I set up a camera on him and realized that he...

    Oreo is finally here !

    I got him from Tails and Scales in Toronto. ( I am over 8 hours north of you) They were great to deal with. They said he was Canadian breed. So far so good :) I think Oreo was around a month when I got him or he’s a super large hatchling. He was 12 in long and weighted 62 g (aug 15). Twelve...
