I took the gator out today, she's almost doubled in length since I got her in Feb, total length now 62cm. (pics aren't that great as I snapped them off the cellphone quickly)

She does not like you. Maybe she wants to come live with me?

HAHAHAHA BV, Yeah, and I have a nice row of holes in one of my fingers to prove it. @ kfc, she isn't the calmest reptile I've got (an absolute baby compared to the retics...) but I don't handle her often at all, so I don't expect her to calm down. She hisses a lot if you go to her cage, and thrases about a bit when you first pick her up, more so now that she has realised she can slap with her tail. Once the "terrible two's" have passed I'm fairly sure she will chill out a bit. I'll be workign with her a little more often now that I am home again full time so we shall see how that turns out. Otherwise she's gonna be going to dog training with me.

She looks very happy, even if she doesn't like you :D

Awesome enclosure, and a beautiful gator !
