....well we haven't named her yet but I wanted to have a picture thread for her. Here's some background on her she is from Jabberwocky Dragons and was born on Cinco De Mayo! That's also just 3 days away from my Birthday!I measured her today and she is just shy of 7 inches and suppose to be the biggest of her clutch. She is doing great here with minimal relocation stress however today she doesn't seem to be eating too much of her crickets.I do have a Dubia colony in the works but im afraid if I feed her some she'll become a addict!Any advise on that? She has been with us since Wednesday of last week and is not shy at all I had my hand in her enclosure and she jumped on me as if I was her basking log lol well enough of that here are some pictures oh her!!!! :blob8:

Thanks, usually I lay down right in front of her when she does that and she just checks me out! Or i'll open her enclosure and put my hand in front of her and yesturday she actually climbed right on my hand and I held her for about 15 minutes! :mrgreen:

Oh and we decided to name her Iris! We wanted a mythology type name that we liked so that's what we picked!

Thanks everyone! She likes to cling to my hand but she still on her "opening mouth" when I try to scoop her up to do so :( I'm hoping that goes away soon until then were just being really patient! :study: She does have quite the curious personality and I always like her expression when she just hangs out on her enclosures sliding glass edge :mrgreen:

Wanted to post a update on Iris......

Figured I would introduce another spoiled brat! Our 2 year old lab Zeus he gets three walks a day since we had him as a puppy because we live in condos and we go out every weekened to either a hike or to a closed off school that is always empty :mrgreen: We also have a account on a Labrador forum

Iris is now 8 1/2 inches and 28 grams! She's getting fed mainly crickets and I'll mix in some dubia but she eats 60-80 crickets a day! She has tried silkworms but wasn't too interested in them after awhile so I traded with my local pet shop at La Habra Exotic Pets and got more crickets. She does like her phoenix worms but we only offer it to her as a small treat here and there. I can't wait to try Hornworms' when she's big enough!

I don't think I would be pleased if she pooped on a $130 keyboard! I'll take that advise as an experience and definitely keep her away!she wasn't even suppose to be on their but she hopped off my hand to my desk lol

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
