Pretty little critter. Now if you want see it go wild and see just how much energy it has, get rid of the bark and give it some dirt to dig in and watch it go.
Oh, watch out for the tail, even the little ones can sting you.

thanks for the compliment,but where can I get the dirt.reptileGOD.

It all depends on where you live when finding dirt.
I go to the riverbanks and my backyard for dirt.
If that isn't an option for you, you can try Lowes and get non-organic topsoil and mix it with playsand.
You can also look up Sand and Gravel in the yellow pages and have a truck load delivered. If you go this route, I reccomend you ask for a sandy loam.

These heat lamps make my electric bill to high.

Thanks drzrider.You have nice looking argus to.reptileGOD.

nice animal .........do you have that aquarium top covered? If not do it quick before the little guy starts to suffer from dehydration due to the humidity escaping. Get ready to build something for it in the next few months as well it will grow fast and aquariums just do not cut it for such an active species such as argus. And go with what scott said and give it some dirt. good luck they are a great species.
