Karasi will be participating in a cold-blooded beauty contest hosted by Petco on June 2nd and 3rd, and I wanted to get everyones opinion on what I made for her to wear! I was on a low budget, and when i made it i didnt measure her first... but all in all I think she's adorable, but my mothers eye may be different from judge eyes! lol!

I love it! She looks amazing ;)

Awww, thank you! :D I'm pretty pumped about this contest, lol, but I hear a lot of people bring their A game.. they say last year a guy brought in a snake with little fake legs on him, haha! (though I have no idea how they got them to stay on, but it's a funny mental image to me :p)

My little girl won first place!(on the second day.. XD) and got me a 15 dollar gift card! :D totally worth it! :p

this video I have to put up, because it cracked me UP!!! At first I was watching the huge iguana a guy brought.. then at the top right corner I see Karasi doing a dance to try and get at some strawberries!! haha!!! (please excuse my less-than-attractive laugh :p I was just caught offguard :D)

Then I finally gave her some.. :p This was her first time eating them, and she obviously liked it!

And here were some of the other contestants (the huge iguana you saw was one, aand there was another that was a beautiful bright orange but for some reason my phone didnt save the photo of that one :( And some kids brought hermit crabs... which obviously arent reptiles, but because the store owner felt sorry for them she let them enter.. :rolleyes: )

I LOVE how they dressed up this beardie! He even had an aluminum helmet with horns and a spike-ball tail cover XD he was always knocking them off though, lol!

A Land Far Away...
I have to admit, I am a bit disappointed or perhaps disillusioned is the right term. When I saw the sign at the store advertising they were having this, I thought great folks showing of their healthy animals. Not meaning the animals you showed, including yours were not healthy. :p Not sure how to explain this, maybe I should say it this way... I thought it was going to be animals using their natural health and beauty, along with personality to win. The use of costumes shocks me. I think the costume should be kept for the Halloween shows. Sorry just me being a fuddy duddy. I just find the costume detracts from the reptiles.

Yours was cute and my first thought was she would make a cute ring barrier at some wedding. ;)

I asked the cashier if it was going to be based on the health and coloration and such, but he told me that it was a matter of creativity :p so I completely understand where you're coming from. :p and (even though by the time I get married she will be MUCH bigger.) I will make her another one to fit so she can be my ring bearer! That'll be something! :D (my family would probably get mad at me knowing them, but its my wedding right? ;) lol)
