Stan, The Man!

[michellel]

As promised, here are some new pics of Stanley. We moved him into his new viv over the weekend and he's still getting adjusted. Plus his head was shedding all weekend, so he was one grumpy boy. But, despite the collar of skin around his neck, his head is now a beautiful red.

He looks stunning, I love his color. What breeder did you get him from if you don't mind me asking?

I got him from a guy called "WillyB" on FaunaClassifieds. I don't think he has his own website, he just posts his dragons on FaunaClassifieds. Both of Stanley's parents allegedly came from Spice Dragons, who also primarily sells their dragons on FaunaClassifeds now, instead of through their outdated website.

Here's the ad I bought Stanley from: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=337720

As soon as I saw it, I HAD to have him. The other babies from his clutch sold out within 24 hours of that post. They were all absolutely beautiful.

I can see why they sold so quickly. And you couldn't go wrong with that price! Can't wait to see how his color develops as he matures I just got my dragon in May. I will try to post some pics of her over the weekend.

Stanley went through another shed and is FINALLY visibly growing. It's been a couple of weeks since I weighed him, so I need to try to remember to do that today or tomorrow. Dan took some great pics of him post-shed. He's such a handsome boy!

And here is a link to a HILARIOUS video of Stan trying to jump from his basking rock up onto his UVB fixture.

I love his fat little belly.

He's up to 56g now. The first time I weighed him back in August he was only 15!

How is he with you now? I remember he was always afraid of you!

Of course i love that belly too!

He's a little less skittish now, because he's always SO HUNGRY, he's more interested in the food in my hand than he is scared of my hand itself. He still hates when I try to pick him up though, so no cuddles yet.

Was just curious because my baby is scared to death of my hand, so it takes forever to try and get him out to weigh/bathe him but once he's put he won't get off of me when I go to put him back in.
