Hi everyone! New BD mom here.
Will try to post some pics and give you some info on Petey.
I received Petey on Thanksgiving, he belonged to my son and DIL, but they just don't have the time to handle 2 Dragons, 3 dogs, 2 businesses, home etc. So, since I was quite familiar with their zoo and especially liked Petey, I offered to make him mine.
About Petey, all approximate
Age between 18 mos and 2 yrs.
Weight 420 grams.
Length 21 inches (give or take lol)
Petey's home is a 40 gal 18x36 tank with screen lid, hide rock, log, dish and hammock.
He has a basking spotlight with lamp and a exo terra repti glo 10.0 15W 18inch T8.
I do not have ir temp gun, probe or calcium and vitamin supplements yet but they are on order from 'the big A'. Along with a ceramic dish for water or worms or whatever and 100 superworms. All should be received in the next few days.
Petey's daily diet is a large salad consisting of greens, squashes, sweet potato shreds, bell pepper and a couple bites of fruit like blueberry, raspberry.
Every other day he gets a couple superworms in addition to salad. Or if he's been particularly good, like warm bath, weighed and measured etc.
I feel Petey is adult and doesn't need protein daily.
He gets warm bath weekly, is alert and active and I think healthy, although until he came with me, he ate too many worms and not enough salad.
I have been reading this site for weeks and want to thank everyone for the multitude of info. So helpful! Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Will try to add some pics. If I mess that up forgive me.
Thanks to all!
Dee
