Birthday Presents !!

I decided that for my birthday this year I could NOT buy myself any more corns. Reasonable, as I've been selling a bunch to make room for projects and so have painfully sold some snakes. Sooooo.... being the woman that I am, I justified some purchases.

LoL... NOT corns... so I followed my own rule!!

First up is Zhin - she's a darling sub adult Water Dragon. I had one years ago and saw her in a Fish and Bird store and just couldn't let her be there any longer. I LOVE these lizards and their sweet personality. She's the new snake room mascot perched on her log guarding for stray crickets and the occasional pinky....

Second up is The Gimster - Albino Western Hognose. I have a pair, named Gimley and Gimlet, however have wanted an Albino for a while to add to my projects. This wee guy is SO cute it hurts!! He's only 12 grams....

Thanks for looking!

-Tonya

Great choice on the Water Dragon! I miss my boy Rex, and often think of getting another. I notice she has the common flat nose. To keep them from doing the back and forth along the glass, wearing down the nose, place a strip of black electrical tape along the bottom of the tank at eye level, and that should stop it. Worked for mine when I first got him, so he had an almost perfect nose, which is rare...

You know, I think people that have had Water Dragons really always want one! My guy Zulu I had 18 years ago...hehe. Poor guy did have a rather raw nose from the pet store aquarium. I'm not going to keep him in one. He gets free reign of the snake room. Thats great information though - do you know of any good forums or sites?

Yes, the area he's in isn't as spacious as you'd imagine. He has a basking area with several climbing branches and a pool to lounge in. He does seem to enjoy the space though.

Thanks !

Congrats, Tonya!! (And Happy Birthday!)

Water Dragons are, imho, an under-appreciated lizard. You've gotta love the richness of their colors.....and that's a gorgeous hoggie, as well!

Kudos!!
