Spotted her cruising about on the lounge room floor yesterday when I was feeding Toothless, he saw her first and was very intrigued , the bluetongues and Peppa were also watching her.
Been hearing sounds behind the corner unit of the lounge for a few weeks and all the rogue crickets have been vanishing , and the we've found remnants of roaches occasionally here and there (a wing , a leg), now know who's responsible.

Gutzy back this afternoon ,

my wife got this happy snap of her while she was chilling in a sunny spot under the old coffee table .... she let her advance to about 3 ft away and watched her and sat their head nodding at her.


Also been on top the head rest of the lounge since .... cheaky bugger was watching me get the silkworms and crickets ready for my BT and beardie feeding seasons.

who's a pretty girl ? and enjoying her toasty transformer.

Enjoyed her 4 mealworms this afternoon.

BTW : these little mid sized skinks also have blue tongues :) .... I discovered this watching many years ago when Gutzy's mum was hanging out inside and I watched her a close range drinking some water.

Sounds like a good setup for her =). I enjoy reading about your wild visitors. I'm a bit envious.

I'm envious as well, I'd love to live in a place like Australia where there is such a variety of indigenous wildlife. In Pennsylvania we see rattlesnakes, rat snakes, bullfrogs, a few newts and salamanders, and if you're really lucky you'll see a wood turtle or a box turtle out in the woods. The only wildlife we get in our own yards or homes are chipmunks, mice, and squirrels chewing your house apart...

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
