Hello everyone! My name is Gabe, and my wife and I are the prowd cartakers of 1 8 year old corn (No name), and 2 beardies age 8 months (Calvin) and 2 years (Hobbes).
My corn I got for my 16th birthday, and I belive that I got allot of bad info at the time. I have corrected my errors, but I belive it has left them perminantly stunted at about 4.5 feet. :shrugs: Im not sure on the exact morph, but his colors are orenge and BRIGHT red with no black. He has become a bit of a handfull lately, but thats for another thread.
Calvin the beardie I got at 1 month and I did my research beforehand this time. He's at 16 inches and is still growing although I belive him to have come from a somwhat weak genetic backround so he wont get much bigger.
Hobbes is a rescue beardie. He is 2 years old and if his tail was normal he would be about the same size as Calvin. As it is he is only 11 inches long. He was kept in a 10 gallon tank with no UVB and fed nothing but mealworms his whole life. He developed MBD at some point and it caused his tail to fracture in 4 places so it is only about 4 inches long. He is thriving under my care and has grown 3 inches since I got him! Not bad for a 2 year old lizard :cheers:
So yes, those are my reptile pets. Lets not even talk about the rabbit, 2 cats and 4 fish and 2 frogs or 10 frogs if you count the ones that gather around our porch light :P
