I hate to say it but he makes me want to get another one. I adore the snot out of this dude. :D

I knew he grew a lot but when I came across those photos on my laptop I was blown away by how big he really got. :P

So I doubt many people remember me. I posted last year when I first picked up my sulcata asking what gender it might be. Well it turns out it was a male which I am happy for. It has been a year and he is doing well. I ended up having to turn an entire room into a reptile room so I could expand...

See Manon scared the daylights out of me because she wasn't moving and she was breathing really strangely like something wasn't working quite right or something was stuck somewhere. After a good warm soak near the space heater she pooed and farted a bunch and now shes perfectly fine and back to...

What ever it was she seems to be doing a lot better. Shes eating and wandering around bright eyed and bushy tailed like shes feeling better.

Ok so growing up with horses I can recognize when something is going very wrong in the tummy region. I went to feed Manon tonight and she was sitting abnormally still and breathing very heavily like something wasn't going quite right. We got through our upper respiratory issue back in Febuary...

The dog isn't allowed around her unless im there but he doesn't bother her. :) Thanks for the concern. He was just cleaning up carrot chunks that she left behind when she would pick up and move her carrot somewhere else. :P [hr] oh I know :P her mouth is massive xD there are a few more pics...

So I have not been able to finish the drawing I promised but in the mean time I finally got a decent day off work to spend some time at home and heres an update. Manon is finally healthy ( FINALLY) we got everything cleared up and shes doing well and eats like a cow. :P Yesterday was beautiful...

Update! Sorry for not posting sooner and I don't have any photos of it yet but I am a little more than half way done with the piece. :) Expect photos in the next week or so. Thank you all who sent photos. :D Jess

I had a girl name picked out incase he was a she so its all good :)

That makes sense. :) Glad to get some feed back and I guess Jacoby is not an appropriate name anymore. :P

I was told male but I wasn't positive so I thought I would post. Its interesting the things you can learn in a day. :p

Thats totally not what I was expecting but hey.

Again I have no clue the age so thats why I thought I should post it on here and see what others think.

I have no idea how old he is but its worth a shot I guess. Hes about 8 or 9 inches long if that says anything. :D
