Hi everyone, long time lurker, first time poster!

I am located in Toronto, Canada and I have my darling RES named Onion. He's a touch undersized as he didn't have an ideal habitat or diet for the first 5 years of his life. My mother bought him as a Christmas present for my baby brother and they've been neglecting him since then. I've been taking care of him for the last 6 months and he's grown from 2.75 inches to 4 inches. Thanks to this forum I've been able to obtain enough knowledge to give him the proper husbandry that he deserves. He's a sweetheart and starting to know and trust me, which is fantastic!

I've turned into a bit of a RES enthusiast ever since I got Onion, so I'm looking forward to sharing the excitement with the rest of you!

Here are some pictures of Onion. He's in his feeding container, which is why it looks so small compared to him.

Welcome! He looks pretty healthy. His growth is a little fast, so you might want to reevaluate his diet.
