My Ozzy is so photogenic! He LOVES his pictures taken. He is about 8 months old in this pic.

He went poo today!! He went 2 days without going and was still eating the same amount of food. Last night i did give him a few drops of olive oil on his nose and he locked it right up. On another note I think his heat lamp wasn't working properly. I bought a new one about 3 to 4 weeks ago and...

So..... a week ago my daughter accidently sat the basking habitat on Ozzies leg and soon after we noticed he was dragging it. After $600 we found he has a fractured femur. I removed everything from his habitat and cut the size in half. We are not handling him only to do his soaks 2xs a week. Up...
