Well, his original name was Bob Crachet, or however you spell it. Named him for the movie because they bought him at Christmas time.
Here are his stats:
1.5 yrs old
Just under 16"
250 grams
And he was bought as a tiny baby from the pet shop I work at!
Speaking of that, I need to have word with my boss, as Beezil was apparently raised on wax worms and meal worms! :shock: :x
Unfortunately, the owners didn't include the set-up as they'd advertised in their ad, so I had to scramble to find a place to put him while I build an enclosure. But he did come with some extra supplements, cricket food, a little water bowl he actually drinks out of, a little hide-out log and one of those cool cricket feeders that lets them pop out one at a time. I'm pretty excited.
Easy where you're pointing that Beard, Beezil, you're scaring us! He's adorable! Welcome to the site (belatedly) and I'm glad to see you both here, and as a proud new beardie parent. He's obviously going to get much better care with you.
