May I Buy You a Drink?

[Paiige]

Not the best shot but I didn't want to disturb him! My little G. pulchra, the first time I've seen a T drink directly from a dish!

It happened!

In the 8+ years I have had Ts, today I finally saw one drinking out of a water dish! My fat...

He is my C.versicolor when it was a sling drinking out of a cut down cap. The cap is about half the size of a dime across.

This is how tiny it was.

I just love a good face plant. Mine won't even drink out of water dishes right now, so they drink directly from the substrate. That face plant doesn't look nearly as cool.

@cold blood I think she is catching up to her sac mates. She put on another .75" this molt and is pushing 4".
