Hello, everyone. I just made a post and was thoroughly schooled on lighting so let's keep that out of this thread This is my newest beardie, JoJo! I was at a PetSmart (I know, I know) and saw something that blew me away. A bright orange leatherback! I had never seen a leatherback in person and his colors totally took my breath away. I knew I had to have him. I had the essentials at home so I wasn't impulse buying a reptile without everything else I needed. I will be getting him a better UVB setup on Tuesday and his enclosure is a little thrown together right now with a very bad carpet job, but he's loving it. He's explored all of what little he can right now (he's in a 40 but can only get to about half) and he loves his basking platform/hide. He sleeps under it and spends most of his time on top just watching me while I study. He's a little skittish right now, but I've only had him for a couple of days so I don't expect him to be comfortable around me already. Anyways, on to the pictures!
He's stunning and he always gives me the sideways glares when I move, like how dare I move near him while he's relaxing lol
