I fell in love with this face when I went for crickets at the local pet store. I just expanded the dragon family by two on two separate visits :shock: LOL. A nip-tail baby that looks like stunning color (Kandy's), red/yellow/purple leopard like pattern. Then this girlie I couldn't get out of my mind. I know the place tends to somewhat neglect the lizards, like not feed a lot, and not watering other than spritzing the tank. I loved her color, and the pudgy stubby body, big round eyes. Love. She was a little scared, belonged to an employee, and is 3 years old. But she's doing well. LOVES to eat. Big surprise lol. I do have her with my male for now, because he's such a lazy boy, he rarely even head bobs, let alone take the effort to bother her. They're in a 4 foot tank, lots of room.

Boy she likes to EAT! Big surprise there. I worry about it a bit, cuz she then breathes hard after eating greens. Like gasps. Just too fat maybe? She's still skittish a bit. Doesn't seem to like her face touched, around the ear area. Makes her turn her head fast. She doesn't go for crickets, too hard lol. Food has to not run.

Hahaha Aww she's a little porker. You could try giving her different types of worms as a feeder if crickets are not her thing, just a suggestion. Have you taken her to the vet to get checked out since you got her?

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
