(Renamed) Buttercups thread

[Chaosadnd1]

I did but the last pic I took of her was with my kiddo. I'll get some up tomorrow. my 2 geckos eat out of a dish, as does my beardie. I've never hand fed. Maybe I am blessed? lol

You are blessed with Buttercups. Titan is new, so he has always eaten out of dishes, but when my hubby was alive he hand fed the others and when you start hand feeding dragons, they don't go back to eating on their own, ever, as I learned after hubby passed away 2 years ago. So now I have a schedule of hand feeding because I still work full-time, have to get up xtra early to get all this done, but I love them all and they're all worth the time. It's easier on the weekends, though, have to say...

I'm very sorry to hear about your husband I have a few pics of the leo's, but no beardie the past week. If she is done shedding tomorrow I'll post some. and maybe sneak a few of the leos for you too

edit: 5 Beardies? I'd die and likely live in a box...

 

[sweetiepie9]

That would be great! I really enjoyed the ones you posted a little while ago of Buttercups and your daughter.
And I just love leos!

Also i thought I'd run into you on the geckoforums, but it was Morphmom. My apologies!

My daughter is a goober. She sits and watches buttercup beside the computer alot. Buttercup is technically "hers" but yeah..she's mine Won't it be funny if Buttercup turns out to be a guy?

Hello again sweetiepie9 (Deb) and I are often found on the same threads. Same with zandi202 (Liz) We just have good taste :lol: Buttercup looks great. If she turned out to be a he, then you could always name him B.C. :wink: Myah came to me as a Malcolm! :shock: It only took a few days for me to figure out he was a she! Then the vet confirmed it. She's moody like a girl too! Can't wait for more pics, and you have a beautiful daughter

 

[Chaosadnd1]

Thank you! Both daughter and beardie are both mad at me. I'm a mean old man for having the kiddo help me clean and buttercup for bath time.

Ok, whew...he walked past the sink..




You tricked me! I am so mad at you!



As you can tell by the stinkeye. Buttercup HATES bathtime. She'll get over it, though I'm sure

 

[Chaosadnd1]

And she's fine :lol:



Hmph! Don't think I forgot about the bath!

 

[zandi202]

:lol: They can sure hold some grudges, huh?

 

[Chaosadnd1]

I think her crankiness is due to the shed of her face and back in all honesty. But she hates baths regardless. She did finally poop in the bath, and not on her basking log today. So I guess small victories are still victories lol.

 

[zandi202]

Definitely.

Spike still hates bath time. She starts wiggling when she sees the water and as I reach to set her in the tub.. she starts scrambling up my arm. If I put my hand in the water she is instantly crawling up!

Buttercup does the same thing! Then when i grab her and hold her like I was a crane carrying something to gently drop her in the water..well, you see the looks I get lol.

 

[Spikeshuman]

Me too! She stares up at me with the evil eye for a while. After a few minutes it seems to change into a "Please get me out of here!" look. You would think I am drowning her.. but she only gets wet up to the middle of her back! I have to sit there and swish water on her to get her back completely wet!!

 

[Chaosadnd1]

Yup. Same here. Annnnd she just poopped on her basking spot again. Argh!
