King Leonidas progression thread.

Alright so I've had Leo for a week now, picked him up on the 10th and he finally shed last night. He's a lesser supposedly around 300g (we'll find out when I grab my scale) and age is unknown besides early 2014.

Wow looks amazing!

He looks great.

Great looking lesser! will be nice to watch hiim grow up!

nice little Lesser, grats

I'm so excited! He is currently eating his first ft rat as we speak. He previously only ate live and I tried on Saturday and he didn't take it. Yesterday he gave me a hungry face after about 20 minutes of handling so I thawed one out and he's taking it down like a champ!

10 yrs or so ago when I kept bps I only fed live so this is my first time. I'm so proud!

What a beautiful lesser! I love love love that pattern :)

Here's a few from before he ate and 2 of him eating a couple days ago. He may be up for a photo shoot today so we may get more in a little while.

They're all cell pics so excuse the quality 😶

Feeding tonight! He would probably have more luck right now if he wasn't trying to eat it from the side of its face

I love his look. He has a great pattern. Can't wait to see him in the 1,000 grams :)

That's a hoodie pocket he squeezed himself into

Crappy cell pics but look who decided to explore while I cleaned and weighed him. He was believed to be around 300g when I got him but he's 425g today so I think he was closer to 200g in jan.

He then discovered his enclosure nearby and decided to retire.

Before I could change his water I might add

Just shed a few days ago, now he's hanging out on the couch

Omg I got my first periscope picture and he flicked his tongue. What a good sport

That periscoping is cool!!!! I love how his tongue looks like he has at least a couple.

Wow! Handsome little rodent killer. Now that is what I call a progression thread in more ways than one. Congrats! :gj: :gj:

Actually my pastel pied that I recently acquired was on live small rats with the previous owner. He has been on quarantine for the past three weeks and I thought it was time to try and feed him. I waited until 3am and went to offer him a f/t medium rat and did "the dance" ifo his hide and WHAM...he took it . So, yeah I know that good feeling you are feeling with KL. Good luck. :)

It's funny because now instead of giving me the hungry face and then attacking viciously, he now just cruises until I bring him a rat and he just rubs up against it and smells it until he takes it gently and coils 😁

I guess approaching 500 grams and he thinks he's a big boy

Now that he's out of shed he's much more social. He starting to become easier to handle than when I first got him and since he looked hungry I offered him a second rat this week. Looks like we'll be upping feedings to 5 days from now on. He's chomping on that rat as we speak 😊

First time outside. Approaching 600g he didn't like the grass so much but he did live the trees lol

He's calming down so much and loves being handled by my 5 year old sister. Now that he's getting so tame I think I want to pick up some more lol.

These are all pictures over the last 2 weeks or so. He's been upset since I switched him to a tub in preparation for moving cross country lol so he climbs out every chance he gets!


BTW. Excuse the mess

Great progression thank you, can't wait until my albino gets that big :)

Leo is getting so big it's impossible to hold him and take a picture now! 800+ grams and getting friendlier everyday!

http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/10...5ac935ca4b.jpg

We recently moved to the DFW Texas area and got him into a new tub. I guess he likes it because he really likes hanging out in there lol. The weather is delicious so I'll get them both outside for some shots soon.
