Feliz is now well over 1kg and looking great.

I love the coloring.

This is one of my favorites in your camp.

Feliz is looking great. He's really starting to thicken up and still has beautiful color and markings and iridescence.

Only two breeders in the country that I know of that breed the dwarf Venezuelan BC's. I think they alternate years, so that's 1 clutch every year. Awesome animals, but not easy to find. If you are, or anyone else is serious, I can get you in touch with Tommy Carpenter of TC Reptiles, who I got Feliz from. That's assuming he's still breeding them. I haven't kept up with him of late. In the past he's been very receptive to updates on Feliz though.

Feliz shed last week and ate two days ago. He's looking awesome. He looks a little darker in these pics then in real life, but not much. The lighting isn't great in that part of the basement.

He's still on small rats, and will be for a bit longer, but he's well over 1kg now. Haven't weighed him empty in a bit as things have been a little crazy.

I'd say he passed his "pillow test" with flying colors.

Feliz is looking great and still devouring small rats. His growth has slowed a bit and he turns 5 in September. I think he has some more growing to do and if/when he gets to about 1,200G (he's closer to 1kg now), I will probably offer medium rats but not as often as he's eating small rats. Still undecided here, but I'll see what happens as he grows. He certainly looks fit and I don't want to push with the medium rats. He's eating the small rats every two weeks now, but this past year, with all the basement work, and moving the reptiles around, no one has been on a regular schedule! Now that things have returned to somewhat normal (whatever that means), we will see if he puts on some weight and how quickly eating every two weeks again.

Here are a few pictures of him going back in his enclosure after I cleaned his water bowl and we spent some time together.

I love Feliz's tail! His pattern and coloring overall are awesome, but that tail, wow.

He's gorgeous! You certainly know how to pick 'em!
