So for a few months there has been an older dragon at Petco just begging (well our friends that work there were begging) to be taken home. Since we finally got a larger home for Toa and she had been moved to the back because of her large size we decided that she shouldn't have to grow up in the back room at Petco. We finally brought her home a few nights ago and she is soo sweet!! We got her for 60% off, plus $10 off for being pals members and $5 off for the cash back, we got her for only $25! It was kind of funny they had to put a reason in for the discount and the manager said to put "cosmetically imperfect"... we laughed because she is the cutest 'little' girl and has no nips or anything. When we got her home she was completely pancaked out even after being put in her viv, so naturally I wanted to name her pancake. The husband wanted to keep with the name theme and use a Maori name... the compromise... Panikeke or Keke for short! It means pancake in Maori. :lol: I'll have to weigh and measure her when I get home.
Here is her cute little face!
Here she is all snuggled in for the night.
I think she looks very dragon like here.
Toa's new viv came along pretty nicely, we might do a few more adjustments but I like it so far.
We recessed the heat lamp so there is no chance of him getting burned.
We are using a LED bulb for the other side. We still need to put in the longer
UVB bulb, we need to find a longer fixture.
Here he is checking it out for the first time.
Now we just need to put his new hammock in and some sort of branch or extra thing in there to give him something to climb on.
So far they have only seen each other through the glass. Toa head bobbed and she arm waved. Does anyone know if this is a good or bad sign? I am planning on waiting a while before I try to do any highly supervised introduction. Anyway, thanks for checking out my wall of text!
