wow! brookie! i’m so happy to see you back! what are you feeding that thing? he’s enormous! good work! ain’t no cat gonna mess with that boy!

lily is actually tame. go through the posts; i’ve got a ton of recent pics posted. (oh, by the way, it’s not jmusclegirl anymore. it’s tempestborn.) donatello’s halloween costume is hilarious, and i managed to get lily into a little halloween t-shirt that my chihuahua outgrew. the change in her is amazing. i bought a little water dragon last saturday. his name is stewie and i posted a bunch of pics of him, too.

i am delighted to hear from you. we’ve missed you. welcome back!

tetris is a very strang iguana a very long stomich im going to start looking up origins and stuff like that cause man i certanly do see a difference between milo and tetris. not just colors but shape:) amazing!do u know anything about that?
stewie is very cute! small but cute!!
my cousin was so inspired bye me he has really gotten into reptiles over the year and just a few weeks ago i decided he was responcable enough for a water dragon and he just amazed me( for a 11 year old)
he isnt a really commited kid but im so proud of him. the wd name is glacier and is a beauty! i never relized how amazing they where until i really saw one... and the only reason ive heard of them is caus of u! wow you are my insparation and my family to. lol

u r too cute! you decided he was responsible enough, huh? and you are the ripe old age of 14? lol--teasing! you are very responsible, and the condition of your pets shows it. i wish some of the kids i work with here could get a taste of what it is to love an animal, particularly an ig. because you know, if a person has never met one they think nothing of them, but they change your heart. some of these kids are 12 years old and here on drug charges, they’ve been abused (or are the abuser) and abandoned and shuffled around and they don’t even seem to have hearts left. and i see what milo and tetris have done for you and i wish i could introduce these kids to that. but there’s no way my bosses would let me bring one in.

i don’t know anything about origins or anything, but i’ll be interrested to learn what you find out. be sure and post it. i’m also anxious to see milo now, too, so i can see for myself.

i know what you mean about the water dragon. a couple of months ago i saw one in petstupid. he was no bigger than my little finger, but when he saw that giant (me) outside his cage, he humped right up and opened his little mouth! i was enchanted! so fierce and brave! and he was expensive and i didn’t buy him, but i couldn’t stop thinking about them. so when i found stewie so cheap, i had to have him. and he’s the same way! he’s handle-able, and not mean, but fierce and not scared of nothin’! which in a way is bad because i’ve got four cats who’d eat him in a heartbeat, so i have to really guard him close. annie says since he’s three years old already he might not get much bigger, but they do grow until they’re 6, so there’s some chance. i hope he gets big enough so i don’t have to keep him caged all his life except when i’m actually holding him.

have to clock in--keep us updated!

yeyyyyy!! im going to go take a video and pic of milo.
oh and milo ive relised a change since his new cage i probrobly should have asked erlier but..
milo hates leaves and decorations in his closet cage. i have to hot glue them to the shelf and stuff like that and his news paper i have the same problem he shoves it off onto the floor and just like laughs" i dont really think he likes the sceanery in there butive heard it stresses him out... what should i do?

yeah, it does make me wonder sometimes how (or if) i can really do any good...

imo, milo probably knows what stresses him out. if he doesn’t like his leaves and things, try something different. maybe cage carpet and bamboo. maybe he’d like a real plant, if it would fit. of course, it would have to be planted in potting soil with no chemicals. anapsid.org has a list of which plants are safe. i know wild igs eat hibiscus, leaves and flowers both. experiment a little. you know nancy (newfgal) on the beardie forum? she has her cages painted with desert scenes--they’re gorgeous. i know iguanas can see in color. annie has one ig who hates red, and another who hates her yellow bathrobe. lily will try to eat anything green, and seems to spend more time crawling around on jim when he has his green shirt on.

i made a little bridge for donatello out of a strip of those $4.00 plastic pretend-bamboo blinds. i’m going to make a sort of privacy screen for lily out of the same stuff, just to make part of her fav shelf a little more sheltered. she’s never bothered to use her hide, but i’m thinking maybe once in a while she’d like to be out of sight. ’tello’s never used his hide, either. he climbs up into his leaves. it’s funny how their personalities can be so different. i’m still finding out what stewie likes.
