update on the newer sav

jhinton6932 · 10-23-12, 06:00 AM

i dont remember if i posted or not but i grabbed a sav while i was doing some work in tampa and came across one housed in a rubbermaid tub like most of us use to house roach colonies in. i brought him back slapped a cage together from wood i had lying around and presto! after spending about 2 weeks under his water bowl burrow he finally came around. he has grown significantly (about 6 inches in the 6-8 week period ive had him) so the adult enclosure is in the works.

this was after feeding time so he didnt really respond to the tongs/door being opened like he usually does but none the less, he is enjoying his morning bask at 150F
