Your Eddie looks just like my Louis. Lily is more yellowish/orange but it's amazing how similar they look. My two are also always shedding and look just as heavy as yours.

I really must get around to taking some photos of my two in their enclosure.

Hey don't knock it!!! You never know - it may be worth something as a real antique or collectible someday!!!

I agree that an xray is not a good idea. I'll ask for a sonar and see what the vet says. I'm sure he has the right equipment. Xray may not be a problem but I would rather be safe than sorry, especially with a bosc monitor that may be gravid. She will need very special and gentle care. Thanks for the...

They really have grown. It's amazing how quickly too. They are so cute and the gills look like they have two pigtails on either side. They are fascinating creatures and I'm really enjoying the progress updates. Will be great to see them pregnant/gravid? some day too.

Marion

Thanks guys. I think I will take a trip to the vet - just in case. It would be great if she is gravid but the idea also worries me to death!! Will see how things develop.

Hi all My two boscies are growing nicely and are now about 16 month old. Lily the female is nice and round and I was wondering if she may be gravid? How does one tell if the female bosc is gravid? I know with beardies their tummies look like a bumpy sack of potatoes but Lily doesn't look like that. ...

Hi Jesica
In your last post - did you attach a photograph? I can't see an attachment.

My all time favourite is the beautiful purple sailfin lizard. I have seen this picture before and I too wonder if there really is such a beautiful creature or if I'm being tricked in some way!! I must say though that every one of the lizards shown here have that "something" that makes them...

If she's not gravid I want to know what you feed her!!! Shame she looks so heavy. Good thing only humans act like they are sick or special when pregnant. In the animal world it's just another fact of life!! Let us know how things develop. Personally, I'm terrified of scorpions but can still apprecia...

I also take my lizards to the Terrace Road Vet Clinic and have always been happy with the care and empathy my babies receive there. The receptionist at Ondersterpoort should be harshly censured for her lack of sympathy and manners!! Surely, in her job, she sees many people who are frantic about thei...

Hi there

It's easy to sex a kitten but if you post a picture of "his" backside with the tail up, I can tell you what sex he is>

Marion

Just got to get me a sugar-daddy so I can get one of these!!!!
Marion

He is too cute for words. Well done - you have done a really good thing. Too many people can't be bothered to help the small and helpless. This fellow will give you lots of joy and laughter. Have you named him yet? He is a lot like one of my cats but quite a bit lighter in colour. Keep us updated on...

Hi all Thanks for all the replies. I have reglued all the vents and taped them as well and so far Louis has stayed in his cage. Once it gets a bit hotter I am going to put the two of them in the big outside aviary I have for them. Probably will start tomorrow during the day so long. Louis has ALWAYS...

Hi all I'm finding it interesting to say the least, having boscs in my home. I have been told and have read about how good they are at escaping. But my Louis defies all the odds. On Friday I got home and when I went to look at my babies only 1 was in the cage. Immediate panic set in!! Anyway I found...
