Untill I put the pics up on the computer, I had no idea how much he had grown.

 

[VARNYARD]

Well he grew a good bit!! He looks healthy too.

 

[Mike]

He looks great!

 

[VARNYARD]

Yea he does!! You are feeding miracle grow?

Last reptile expo I went to I bought 1000 superworms, and have been pumping them with oats, wheaties, and a few other goodies, and have been giving him pinkies and crickets also.
Hopefully that combo will get him on the right track.

My little guy came out of hibernation a couple of weeks ago, and have been feeding him all he will eat(which is alot more than I would have thought) and so I took a couple of pics of him today.

Here he is a couple of days before he went into hibernation in November.

And here he is as of today. Keep in mind he hasn't been eating again but just a couple or three weeks.

Ok I hate to jack the thread and everything, but how the heck did u actualy get the leash on him. Everytime I even attempt that with Coco she goes nuts. I got it all the way and tightened it so it wouldnt fall off and she went berserk on me. lol. I havent really tried since.

 

[dorton]

Just take your time, work it over its head, and let it sit there for a minute to get used to it if needed. Its much easier to do if you have it on the ground, and you get down over it on your knees.

I just went slow and easy on both of mine, and really didn't have any probs.

 

[lizardboy101]

I did try going slow, but it just didnt seem to work out. Pretty sure my prob was I didnt show enough patience with her. lol. Thanks though I will definatley start trying again.

yep...patience...i finally got mine to crawl on my hand without my scooping him up when I take him out...i used to have to wait like 5 mins just with my hand in for him to sniff, etc. Then i would scoop a few times before i could actually take him out...now i just stick my hand in slow, he'll sniff me and climb right on my hand!
He just came out about 2 weeks ago~

Awesome pics by the way!!

Man you just gotta love how they grow. Great shots, is he from Bobby's stock?

 

[Markie]

Awesome! I can't wait to see how mine grows

 

[dorton]

Yeah, he's one of bobby's. He is super laid back, a real joy to handle.
