Male poly and the usual OT

gerryg Aug 19, 2012 01:55 PM

I try to let my two BM's and the two polyz out on at least a weekly basis so they have something stimulating to do beyond exploring the limited confines of their enclosures... Gomez, my male polyzona, for the past week has been out in the open just chilling out more than usual so he gets to be my featured pet this week.

Came home this past week to find him hanging out by the sliding glass door I always use to access his enclosure... didn't seem to care I opened it up to snap this photo.

Here he is on today's sanctioned outing... exploring one of the potted plants

and today's first OT... this battered warrior... not the best photo but seeing as the dragonfly was better than 20' away...

This one... simply cool...

I like the fact that the "sweet poly pure-bred" is so laid-back and trusting in his comfortable environment you are providing!..

Thanks Dennis... all those shots were taken with a Fujifilm HS10... fairly decent camera all in all and a lot cheaper than buying a real dslr with all the lenses I'd need.

Gerry, Great pics, looks like Gomez hasnt missed any meals, lol, great looking polyzona...

Thanks John... truly appreciate your comments. He doesn't miss meals but I swear between feedings he forgets how to eat... he's not too bright even by snake standards.

Killer polyzona, Gerry! As far as I'm concerned, keep on posting the O/T stuff, too! Love those dragons...

always good to hear from you... especially if it's a kind word or two.

Made a post to the insect forum as well... usually just post there helping people ID what they find... but since it's been deadly slow over there for a year or so and I don't want my posts here to be completely off topic...

For you though... I'll try to get a couple of dragons here every now and then.
