i’m pretty sure that ‘he’ might be a ‘she’ because males of this species have blue patches on their underbelly. not knowing when the patches develop, i can’t be sure of the exact gender.
androgyny aside, from this point on, it will be known as “andy pipkin.”
i’ve been feeding her fruit flies and meal worms. she’s definitely grown a bit. i was feeding her meal worms every day until yesterday. she wouldn’t stop eating them and started looking like she needed to pay more for her health insurance. when she was basically spasming on the bottom of her cage, i was reminded of the times ugly kid and i would go get taco bell and krispy kreme and gorge ourselves while watching dvds in shedubeard’s basement. i decided to put her on a diet of one meal worm every other day.
one of the things i have observed is how she behaves when stalking her prey. usually, she pounces and the insect doesn’t have a chance. then sometimes, the predatory show begins and she slowly crawls toward the bug with her tail wagging in delight. i can’t remember if any of my past lizard pets did anything like that. it’s almost as if she is wiggling her tail to distract her prey. i like it because she’s like my little pet dinosaur.
We have something that looks just like your friend here. I’m not sure if they are the same thing or not but they look like it. I havent been able to catch one yet and I feel that I should wait a good month or so before I dive on the ground to get one and let my neighbors know what I’m really like.
you probably saw the florida scrub lizard, which looks very similar to mine. you also have a variety of geckos, iguanas and anoles because of the tropical climate.
Actually I think the aholes are there because their old and all their friends are there.
