Well, we finally decided on a name! This is Gizmo:
Not so sure if he is a boy or girl, but we will find out. But either way, I thought that the name Gizmo can fit in with either sex.
We got him about a week ago from a friend who breeds them. He's about four months old and still a baby. I'll post measurements sometime soon.
Gizmo has settled into his home pretty well. He is living in a ten gallon tank with cage carpet and a hiding place. Of course, I have a heat bulb and will be ordering a UV bulb off the internet soon. I'm also working on a bigger tank in the meantime. I'll post pics of that as I go.
Gizmo is a great eater and is chomping down on crickets like crazy. I'll be ordering some phoenix worms before I try the veggies. I'm thinking that I can put the phoenix worms in the veggies so he will try some.
Gizmo has some stress marks from all of the traveling (part of it might be that he doesn't have a uv bulb yet) , and I'm thinking they'll be going away in the next two weeks or so. But other than this, Gizmo loves to be held, and loves to sit with me and fall asleep on my chest.
Ok. Now enough with the chit-chat. Here are some pictures with my Gizmo "photoshoot".
Here's the top of Gizmo:
Some Head-shots:
Some other little shots:
And here's a pic of Gizmo on his sleeping (he sleeps in the cave) and basking spot (sorry for the poor quality. This certain picture was taken on my cell phone):
Hope you enjoyed my pictures!
I'm hoping to keep this thread going so that you guys can see Gizmo as he grows up.
