Before I got Thistle, people told me that blue tongues grow really fast. Well, now I believe them! She's suddenly SO much bigger!
Her weights: 7.10.20 47 gms
7.24.20 73 gms
8.1.20 94 gms
8.8.20 119 gms

Yesterday I took the divider out of her enclosure and redecorated. I felt sorry for her...she went to sleep under the substrate and when she woke up her entire environment had drastically changed. So most of today she was afraid to come out of her hide. And when I reached to pet her head, she bit me! She had stopped biting a couple weeks ago. A couple hours later she did let me pick her up without biting.

When I got her...
