Video feed's up. Looks worse than chunky peanut butter, but it's there. Gonna refine it over the next 10 days.
In other news, Charizard's first bath was today.Had fun with that. Lapras and I both thought it was amusing. He sat in the water, itching his face, until he got sick of it and got out. He's shedding right now, so baths are important.
Videos for Charizard's bath, the construction of the cricket box, and a couple other videos are in the process if being edited.
We decided on naming our water dragon Tai, cuz it's cool. Just throwing that out there.
I was looking at different lizards on the internet, and there are some pretty ones out there. There are some interesting agamids, a family of lizards commonly known as Dragons. Same family as the bearded dragon and water dragon, which interestingly enough, share not only a family, but a subfamily. (Coincidentally, their genus names are consecutive when shown in alphabetical order.) Checked out Green Basilisks, Frilled Dragons, Argentine Tegus, and Angle-headed Lizards.
Did some unfortunate math today. The amount of fading on Ivan's body patterns, his scarring, and the rate his lip is healing means he's probably about 6 years old. He doesn't appear to be in good health, either. His feces are irregular and appear to be diarrheal, and his digestion seems to be slow. I think he might have internal parasites. I'll keep him under close watch.
Why didnt you tell me Ivan wasnt doing so well, he seemed pretty ok, but your around him most. Poor Ivan, he's alot older than we thought. If he really is that old atleast he'll have some comfort of being fed somewhat better than he had been. But he needs to see the vet on Monday if we can manage it, internal parasites dont just go away :/
