Leachie up close
Leachianus up close.
Further amazed by nature.
 |
| Love their mouths- their scales are amazing. Totally see where myths of dragons came from. |
 |
| Their feet are so big. |
 |
| Their tails project out from a tuck of skin. they are beefy and short. |
 |
| The coloration on their scales are like abstract art. |
 |
| Love how their little nails are covered. |

And then she dropped her tail
Pookie is one of the first geckos I purchased (she is 3 1/2 years old). I had been hooked by Squish and purchased 2 babies that I named Pookie and Chewy.
They are easy going girls that hooked me in further.
During routine weekly cleaning I was snapping a picture when she jumped on to my camera. Not unusual occurrence. I reached up with my other hand to make sure I didn't drop my phone and scared her into dropping her tail.
When her tail detached she was unfazed. She sat there like it was a Tuesday...
Photos below tell the story.

 |
| It amazes me how the tail pulls out triangles of tissue so that the skin collapses on the left over tail nub. Very little bleeding. |
 |
| 6 grams of beautiful tail. This thing moved for easily 10 minutes after it detached. |

Guacamole- Pacman frog growth thread
On December 8th I purchased a pacman frog- henceforth know as Guacamole.
I think one of the amazing things on these guys is watching them grow. I want to keep a thread where its growth can be easily viewed.

Tropical fish tank
Love my fish tank. I like adding plants and wood that allow for height It has guppies, tetras, shrimp, and a bristle nose pleco. It is like having a living television. It is very soothing.
 |
| The guppies have been picking these guys off. I wish they could all get along. |
 |
| Before and after adding some height. The nets in the corners are for the baby guppies. |
 |
| Love all of the colors of guppies and tetras. |
