Post Posted: Thu Sep 06, 2007 12:47 am   New Pic of LEO basking...

He (it) has grown so much since I "inherited" it from the neighbors who weren't keeping him in good conditions... :evil:

But...thank goodness he is healthy and happy now. And is starting to become more social. He is about 3 plus inches long now!~

The 1st and 2nd pic is him before I got him. He had no lights, heater, water or good food!!! Can ya tell a difference?! lol

Just wanted to show off my baby! Cant seem to get a good pic of him EVER!

(And BTW, Tobi girl STILL hasnt laid YET..but is still acting normal...:))

This was how small he was a few months ago.

Awe, he looks very healthy and happy! Thank goodness you were finally able to rescue him out of the clutches of those evil neighbors! ha ha! just kidding (about them being evil i mean). But I'm glad you were able to save him and give him the proper care that he needed. :D

Nope he hasnt yet met Tobi on the floor. They have only seen each other through the tank and if I hold Leo over Tobis head while she is basking...lol Leo is just to fast and little to run on the floor right now. And he is still skittish enough "he pees" if he is nervous...lol So...we are waiting a while to get them BOTH on the floor! :)
