pics of my peruvian!!

Gary93 Mar 14, 2008 12:15 PM

these are pics of my peruvian, iris. ive had her for 13 days now. i was told shes about 4 and a half months old. i guess shes about 23" let me kno if you think thats accurate. the pics are about a week old. let me kno what u think. the pics arent that great. i didnt use flash. i didnt want to stress her with that since she was still setling in a bit.

girth reference





this one shows her pattern nicely

heres her home, i took these a few days before i bought her, thats why the hygrometer says 16%. so far its been working out well, warm side temps range from 80-83, cool side is low 70s. humidity ranges from 60-90%. but most of the time its 75% or higher. the tub is 36" long x 15" wide x 13" tall

cool side

warm side


just for fun here is my male, 1 and a half year old, 20" beardie, spike.

enjoy! let me kno what you think of her!

She is very nice and will only get better with age. Often times I think many Brazilian's have Peruvian blood and that makes them that deeper red color instead of orange, but who knows.

Anyway's nice little gem. Be sure and post pic's as she matures.

Congrats on the new Rainbow! Your Beardie is cool, too. Looks like he thinks he's too cool to get his picture taken, that face is great!

thanks. yea, spike is a bit cocky haha. he gives me a dirty look a lot...but hes still as tame as reptiles go. never bites or scratches.
