Shes shedding, heres a clean spot, notice the colors, very light coloration in fact. The rest of her is as dirty as usual.


This was taken after she ate 2 guinea pigs, of course shes inflated to absorb more heat.

Did Sobek start mellow to begin with or did it take time? If it took time, could you describe how Sobek was at the beginning and how long it took before he/she mellowed out. Thanks

Straight out of the package withing 1 minute of showing up. I opened the bag, looked at her (all 6 inches STV) and she climbed out onto my hand. She was very warm and inquisitive. She has always been that way.
Ive had monitors that eventually came around (on their own sweet time) and decided to accept me, some took years, some never would (this is just what you have to expect).
