It piss me so bad.
Green basilisks, AKA Jesus Christ lizards, are probably the worst pets you can ever own. Not only do they need a huge habitat for size and need ridiculous humidity and heat levels, they just plain hate you. I've heard of very few nice ones, and I'd say mine is about as tame as they come just because I don't take from him.
His name is Abel (there was a Cain at first, but he was killed by Abel...revenge of biblical proportions?). He's about to turn one years old, and despite how bad he is, I couldn't love him more. I've never been more entertained by a reptile, and I can't imagine my life without him.
This is when he had MBD. I didn't realize when I got him that he'd been wild caught in Nicaragua and had horrible nutrition. He'd fallen about 5 feet down in his custom 94 gallon vivarium and his tarsus turned to dust. After good care and many vet visits, he's all better.
6 months old! Just getting the first signs of a head crest, proving that he's male.
8 months old. Must larger head crest, and his vivarium is complete with cork bark!
Leg comparison pic showing that the bone is completely healed. Also his dorsal crest is coming in!
Meeting Lucian, the beardie, for the first (and possibly the last) time.
Lol this never stops making me laugh. He's 11 months old now, and I'm feeding him Gerber garden vegetables baby food because he refuses to eat veggies on his own. He also fails at eating like an adult. Look at those crests!
