Profile: Aventurine

This week Living Gems Reptiles profiles one of its baby animals, Aventurine. Aventurine is a September 2010 female. As opposed to Pyrope who we profiled last week, Aventurine seems nervous about *everything*, often staying curled up in a tight ball when handled, and sometimes refusing food because people are/were around. As of March 2011, she weighed 76 grams.

Here she is in a sequence of three shots under different lighting, all taken in March 2011:

Thank you for reading,

Thanks guys! She's got great potential. Especially as a much cuter ball python substitute. ;-)
