Homer the Great Frill Neck

[Adandiluvsmyreptiles]

Well everyone here are pics of my birthday pressie as promised. His name is Homer (obviously). He is a 3 year old male Frilled Neck Lizard (obviously again). I called him Homer as he was a present for me but Adam is the one with the passion for frillies (dont get me wrong - i luv em but he has ALWAYS wanted one....i actually bought him a hatchie for valentine's day). I decided to call him Homer as it reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Homer buys Marge a Bowling Ball for her Birthday and even has "Homer" engraved into it lol.

The previous owner selling him had purchased him only a short while ago but couldnt get him to eat or settle down. He had only eaten properly once the 3 months he had changed homes so the seller just wanted him to go to a home where he could be settled with less traffic movement etc and it seems Homer is loving it here! Already he has eaten some fuzzy mice for Adam which is GREAT as he was a bit on the thin side. We will be trying him shortly with Dog food, mealworms and roaches and see how he goes.

Anyway here are the pics

good one you see things like that and ponder what will come of that beautiful lizard ...
good to see he made it to a good home..
not implying he wasnt at a good home before just obviiously stressed
as was the owner by the look of the ad

 

[Adandiluvsmyreptiles]

Yeah he tried to tear Tony apart when he was holding him, but he was as calm as anyting for Ad, he ate 5 fuzzy mice out of Adams hand.

Frillies are awsome. If I didn't need a class 2 licence I would have one or two in my lounge room.

 

[Adandiluvsmyreptiles]

Yeah we have him in our loungeroom and hatchy in the bedroom.
