His enclosure in 5x2.5x5. I have to build a different one the one he is in was for a green iguana. Although he does like theclimb the trees in the enclosure.

Nice I saw this Rhino on Fauna! congrats

 

[james.w]

I have found they seem to like to climb, at least when they are younger/smaller.

Very nice rhino congrats and good luck.

he looks pretty happy just hanging out in the styrofoam box, lol

 

[herpgirl2510]

That's when I first opened him up the camera really washes out his color though.

 

[teguboy77]

Just wondering you said he had cream color under him on his stomach,it looks kinda orange to me just saying.Very nice rhino again.

 

[herpgirl2510]

I know it does get more orange at different times of the day as he gets warm through the day he gets a cream color mixed in. I t is funny the insides of his legs remind me of leopard spots. My camera usually captures colors better even my tattoos look washed out in those pics must be the halogen bulb.

I could be wrong but i think that might be a russets rhino cause even his face has a rust look to it, and i can see the orange color on his belly which looks like mine orange in color.Not 100% sure but it looks alot like mine in color.

 

[herpgirl2510]

He has the color on the back of his legs also sometimes on his back. The guy was not sure he did not remember. He know loves to run onto my lap from the enclosure he will let me pet him but not pick him up. If I pet tom much or get to close for his comfort he runs down my legs back into the enclosure. I spend hours just reading with my feet in the enclosure.

 

[teguboy77]

I wish the owner before you knew cause from your pictures it sure does look like a rust orange on his bell and face alittle.But all in all its a awsome looking rhino.Thats funny he runs on your lap thats cool,mine is funny to when i get done cleaning his cage or feeding him he will sit rite in front of me and just watch me lol like what are you looking at lol.There really awsome lizards.

nice Rhino !!

 

[teguboy77]

I tell you one thing rhinos can eat like crazy lol,mine ate his greens and i fill his dish,then i cleaned his cage and put some mazuri tortoise chow in his dish and he ate almost the whole dish lol,he looked like he was going to pop.

 

[herpgirl2510]

I should try the tortoise chow does it have to be mazuri?

 

[teguboy77]

I guess not there is others,i bought some and i soak it in water and put it on top the greens and mine loves it.

 

[herpgirl2510]

I will order some mazuri no where here sells it I live over an hour from any decent pet store.

 

[teguboy77]
