Actually, Zilla is a he. And he has great orange colors. We got him from Sundial Reptile a few years ago and his color just keeps getting brighter with each shed. He just did a full body shed over the last couple of months and his beard has really gotten orange.
He absolutely loves being outside, except for the planes, birds and wind. He tried to climb a tree when a bird kept chirping at him. We do have to watch out for hawks as they once hovered above him and he tried to escape from my lap. At that point we ended his outdoor time for the day. Glad you enjoyed the pics!
Wow....Zilla is beautiful!
His colors just POP!
I understand what you are saying about the hawks.
We have alot of them also and are constantly watching the sky when our Rex is out!
Thanks for the kind words! Can you believe my 5 year old took these pics? And we didn't do any editing on the computer. When looking at the pics I can't believe how orange he is either. I guess in person I'm having so much fun with him I seem to overlook the obvious!
Zilla will stay in one place for a while and then sprint. But with 3 of us on guard he's not going to get very far. Also, he's getting slow in his old age! I usually put his leash on him but for the pics I we went without.
