Jango (pic heavy)

Hey all.. not sure who all read my introduction link so I guess i'll start by saying hi, my name is Tammy.. I'm a 38 year old, stay at home mommy of one human, my son Nathan (7yrs) and to Jango. My hubby bought Jango for me on Feb. 29, 2012 at a well known pet store near us.."Gittlers". The lady who took care of us there told us that Jango was only a few weeks old when we got him..so if that's correct he should be about 4 months old.. or somewhere around that i'm guessing. Not sure what kind of beardie he is though. He's currently in a 20 gallon reptile tank with reptile carpet and the lights that came with the tank.. I know I need to get new lights for him asap..just need the $$. He loves his crickets (dusted w/calcium 1x day) and he gets kale and turnip greens with some carrots and cucumber.. once in awhile I give him some apple, wich he loves. his basking side stays between 99 and 105 and his shady side stays about 75.

Jango loves being out of his terrarium and looking out the window, 'specially when the sun is shining and I can have it open.. I always supervise him. I don't trust him enough yet to let him have run of the house but I do let him run around on the couch and once in awhile in my son's bedroom, we block all the holes up and keep a close eye on him, a few times he'd snuggle with my son's stuffed animals and go to sleep, he even fell asleep once on the dresser behind the CD player. I can walk around the house with him hanging onto my shirt or sitting on my shoulder, wichever he feels like doing. Once in awhile I will take him into the bedroom with all the fish... yeah.. we have lots of fish.. mostly Chiclids.. 75 gallon, 55 gallon, a few 20 gallons, 10 gallons and a 5 gallon..oh also got a 29 gallon with gold fish in it.. hubby wants to get another 55 gallon and also wants to get Jango a 40 gallon breeder tank.

On with the pictures:..

Oh my, he is such a handsome boy! I bet he can't wait to strut his stuff outdoors. The harness looks fantastic! Was it easy to make?

We buy superworms 1,000 at a time. They last for months. The last time we ordered, I think, was last November or December and they are still going good. At his size you could still buy the large ones. We bought the medium ones and our girls eat more quantity of them as they are smaller than the large ones.

Thanks Zandi :) It was alot easier than I thought it would be to make.. I just used his old, smaller one as a sort of a pattern just made it bigger and used the string from his other one.. but I just found this you can use as a template mabie.. depending on how big you want it.. I made mine 6' x 1.5' this pattern is basically the same thing

That's a very nice harness. One of the best DIY one's I've seen. I love how Jango always seems happy. I'd kill for Myah to have a nice white belly most of the time but she's just too moody! LOL! :lol:

Yeah.. Jango is very mellow. Not sure if it's just from me always handling him since he was a baby or what.. we can put our face by his, I always am kissing him and such and he's never tried to bite.. the only time he ever bit me was by accident when I feed him crickets sometimes he grabs my finger.. and once when he was by the window when he was little.. I must've scared him and he nipped me. The only time he gets scared is mostly when he's at certain windows and see's someone walking by or something he doesn't like.. but that's barely ever.

Myah bit me too! Left a good mark in my finger nail. My own darn fault. It was the first time she had baked squash and, well, she really liked it! :lol: I shall never hand feed mush again! :lol:

Oh heck! Don't you worry about that! With so many people talking to you at one time, it can be hard to keep everything straight. Jango is lovely and the harness is lovely and no thanks are needed :wink:

That really is a great harness and fits him really well, too, it'll be nice to be able to take him outside to see how he reacts!

Supers are wonderful, they live forever. I have mine in wheat bran, I buy it at the pet shop as they don't seem to like the stuff I can get at the grocery store, so I stick to the pet shop stuff, they sell it really cheap to me, so I always have some on hand. As I have to get crickets weekly for the geckos, I buy 100 a week at the pet shop or I'll get 200 and skip a week of buying them. My boys are eating more right now, they're getting their appetites back and I like them to gain a bit of weight over the summer, so they're ready to sleep in the winter if they want to. Only Lonzo isn't allowed to brumate at all because of his right lung still not functioning, plus his age. I prefer him to just take long naps but be up in the am so I can feed him. He loses weight too quickly otherwise.

I loved all the pics, I can sure understand him not liking to shed, but seems to be an ongoing thing, even Lonzo, at 10 yrs old, sheds here and there. You'd think they'd stop after awhile but no.

Hey everyone.. hope all you mommies out there had a great Mother's Day! Nathan got me a cookie jar (with Mike's help of course) and made me a fancy door hanger in school..

Cookie Jar (it says 1 reasons.. suppose to say 3 reasons.. place messed it up.. oh well.. I still love it!) notice they included Jango :D


Nathan's door hanger he made at school..


Jango loves being out of his viv as much as possible.. he spend a few hours out on the windowsill yesterday.. but it's still too cold to go outside.. it's in the 30's here the past few days and even had snowflakes falling yesterday.. later in the week it's suppose to go up into the 70's.. crazy weather! Mike was out yesterday cutting the grass and messing in the yard.. Jango watched him the whole time and even fell asleep while doing so.. :lol:

watching dad outside..


fell asleep while watching dad outside..


I thought he just closed one eye, but I looked and both were closed.. he was sawing some serious z's there.. :lol:

1:37pm

Just me again.. Mike sent me to Gittler's (where we got Jango) with more of his fish (babies that are not so much babies anymore).. 31 in total and got almost $63 in store credit for them :blob5: Mike wants to save it to get another 75 gal. tank :roll: like we need anymore fish! I told him I had a coupon for 50% off any reptile at Petco.. and I was gonna get another bearded dragon.. he said no and Jango didn't really like the idea either.. when I mentioned it Jango was nearly asleep on the floor of his viv, head down and all.. all of a sudden Jango whips his head up into the air and looks at me like "what!??" :lol: So I guess I got voted out on that idea. I then told Jango that he'd always be my baby dragon and no other would ever replace him.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
