I love the pattern on his back :). If Bowser and Chomper were the only names I had to choose from,.. I would definitely go with Chomper. Common,.. yes but sounds better than Bowser to me. Plus Chomper is the main character in The Land Before Time :D and that's one of the cutest movie series ever.

Thank you too,when i started it,it was going to be for ackies but due to not being able to adquire a license to posses then i went with something else that would be a lil challenging & different from any one that i know. i adore him 7 his snappy nippy attitude!!

I forgot how small they start out at. Ah now I want a new one and start it all over again. I love the name Chomper by the way!

Yes & i do to,allright Chomper it is...When you first got yours did he hiss up a storm & try to bite? Mine does a lot so far,hopefully this attitude will change!?

Mine had a little bit of an attitude, he would hiss and be a bit puffy, got a few tail whips here and there. He has never tried to bite or open mouth lunge at me. Honestly he was great right of the box, as Ben said he would. The only thing is my hands are all scratched up die to those nails.

I wish he was that calm ,he has plunged at me with his mouth wide open more then a few times...Hopefully this is due to being in a new enclosure,the person who gave him to me had gotten bit once handling him!!Oh boy looks like im in for the long haul,Lol!!

If you don't mind me asking, how much was Chomper? caiman lizards are on my list of animals to get in the future and I'd like to know what sort of investment getting one would entail. He looks awesome and I wish you two many years of happiness. Keep the pics coming, pal. :)

Dude, that's awesome! Nothing beats free anything, let alone a free caiman lizard. I'm now greener than an iguana with envy, lol.

Nice vid. :) I really like your setup. Please keep us updated on your caiman lizard adventures. There is so little info on the internet about how to care for these guys.
