This is going to be the official thread for everything MacGyver related.
Background:
I got Mac on July 24 (two weeks before this post) from this guy: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Tys-Lizards/188828187820956
He was just short of three weeks old when I got him, so he's about 5 weeks old today in the videos below.
This is Mac the day after I got him (3 weeks old):

And these are yesterday (5 weeks old)

At 5 weeks old now, he is eating about 8 pinkies (frozen from rodentpro.com) every day.
He is super active and dog tame. When he is walking around in "explorer mode", he will come to the front of his enclosure when he sees you and will instantly climb up onto you for a free ride if you put your hand inside (videos below). Even when he is in super lazy mode just basking, if you rub his head a little and then let him lick you, he will climb right up onto your arm.
Here are a few good videos I just took. He is always this active & friendly.
This is Mac in "explorer mode" & looking for a way out of his enclosure to have some fun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSbEwgcB9yU
And again, climbing right up onto my shoulders: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWrDLW-N3PA
Hanging out on the couch letting me pet him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPTdeoLnu8w
I let him free roam, but sometimes he just circles me looking for a way into my shirt so he can go to sleep: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hf_csPC86Uo
And then after he has been free roaming for a while, i lay down and call him, and he comes over to try to find his way into my shirt again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRApqcj4qVI
Not bad for just two weeks of training. Stay tuned for for videos of him learning how to walk on two legs and fly in a few more weeks.
