Thanks and hope to hear the good info. by the way this is an amazing site...

Welcome Jarret!! I hope you and your son will have lots of bonding time with his (and your) Christmas gift. I thought about making some smart comment when you asked for extra information and that you had experience with lizards.... something a long the lines of "you should not expect to see your Cherryhead climbing the tree branches", but thought better of it. He may of course help himself to food you intended for your lizards however.

Hi and welcome! I try to organize everything I learn in the Library, linked below, so I don't have to keep writing it out.

Hey Jarret. Welcome! I'm right across the water in SI. I have two Cherry Heads. Read everything you can in "the Tortoise Library". Great information, especially for a new RF owner.
