So its been a year scense I got my first caiman lizard, Bacardi. Its hard to believe the growth that has happen and the learning. I will have to tweek somethings in the info thread but wow was a rewarding year so far. I got very luck, Bacardi is more like a dog/alligator gross than the name sake animal. He is very calm now and does not tail whip or puff anymore. If I open the cage he comes walking out onto my arm.
Anyway enough talking here are some pictures!
Bacardi when he was at Ben's: these were taken from the ad and I asked for the one pictured. Glad I did he was a cubby little gem!
Here are some pictures of when he arrived the first week of March last year:
Here are some from just this morning. Wow how much he has changed. I think Caiman lizards might out compete tegus in the glutton arrena, mine is knocking a tray of snails, some shirmp, talapia, and croc diet each week.
Head shot, the red is just getting brighter and brighter with each shed;
Full boady, and he is calm enough to do this with him everytime. Think he will be a great ambasador.
And a gurth shot, that green is also just getting better and better! I was waiting for him to drab up in color but it hasn't happen!
Now the real work has started, getting a jungle gym of an adult cage set-up.
