Re: Tank the Gila
What is that black material on top of what he's sitting on?
I like the way that looks and he's very handsome! I mean he's really a pretty Monster but oh my gosh you are very brave....

Re: Tank the Gila
What a good looking fellow! I’m looking forward to his progression thread and all the photos as he grows, beautiful monster that he is, I bet he’ll only get better with age.

The black thing is a large Reptile Basic hide i had laying around. And thanks. I use a glove on them as babies until they get big enough where i can keep a better distance between the bitey end and my fingers lol. I've had Dozer about 2 weeks now i think and he doesnt even hiss at me anymore. He hissed a couple times when i got him but now he just ignores me for the most part. And Tank hasnt even hissed at me at all. Just looks at me.

Thanks. Yeah, he wandered around for a couple hours, then ate a F/T fuzzy mouse and now is sleeping inside his warm hide.
And Dozer is out and about like usual just tearing everything up lol. Guys digs and flicks aspen all over and wedges himself between the litter dam and sliding door and inch worms his way up to the top and then tries to inch worm across the top which leads to him falling lol.

He’s so cool dude, I love the pictures. So awesome, beautiful little guy, nice setup!

Re: Tank the Gila
Tank is such a sausage and for those thinking of a Gila, they are so lazy lol. Tank does come to the front of the cage when I open a door but it depends on her mood if she let's you scratch her head or if she wanders off if no food comes lol.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...21e4a04ea1.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5c0c6036c5.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...73be68d686.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...81dd3b8a96.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9ab11d12a5.jpg

What a cute little face. :buttercup
Sounds like she's training you to reliably bring food? :rofl: Pretty bad, to be snubbed by a Gila...?

Thanks. He is really coloring up nicely but he isnt as laid back as Dozer. I have started free handing Dozer but not Tank yet. I was scratching his head with my glove on and guess i scratched a little longer than he wanted so he hissed and headbutted my finger lol.

Looking good there my man!

Re: Tank the Gila
Gotta love Tank's pattern. Need to pick up a plastic kiddie pool so I can let them run around.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...7061daaee9.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8f777280dd.jpg

Re: Tank the Gila
And here is some pics of a mostly fresh shed Tank. Look at all that orange on the body and you can see the pink on his head even under the shed.

Re: Tank the Gila
New Years update for Tank!! He has gotten huge and is easily 1 foot or slightly longer. I call him Mr Grumps. If I walk by his cage and he doesn’t know it’s me, he will let out a hiss. Once he gets a closer look since gilas don’t have the best sight, and realizes it’s me, he approaches. Definitely not as easy going as Dozer but still great.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1ecbd40d96.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...0c6507db0f.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...fd306d347b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...36ae13ae61.jpg
