Hello all, finally figured out how to get a picture onto this silly page I think. We'll see shortly. I think he's pretty cute. All comments and suggestions on weight, color, food etc. are happily anticipated.

Looks good. The only thing I would suggest would be changing the substrate. I generally keep babies on paper towels but the seed you him on has some pretty big stuff in it and I'd be careful with babies and dried food (seeds, lentils).

Dynamic little one Deb! Looks very healthy and plump, with vibrant colors as well! I'm jealous! :0)
Best wishes with the little one!

Thanks for the compliments all. Scooter says thanks too.
And thanks for the advice about substrate and lentils. The substrate is wild bird seed and is mostly millet with no sunflowerseeds but I may switch now that you've mentioned the larger pieces. So far it hasn't been a problem but no sense in tempting fate. I have never torn up or made small pieced of greens for Scooter. He bites things really well. Even his squash and flowers as well as his bok choy leaves. He even likes to bite the thicker stem part of the bok choy so I think that might be OK. He's funny to watch as he stands in his bowl and hold things down with his feet and bites away.His lentils are put through the coffee grinder and I only give them to him in really small amounts(like a pinch on top of his rock) I mix his calcium and vitamins with them because he was turning his nose up at greens that were dusted. Such attitude! I guess I'm sneaking them in that way once or twice a week.hehehe Again thanks for the info and looking at our Scooter pics.
