 New one of the babies

it’s saturday, so i get to bathe my critters myself (i get jealous--jim always gets to do it because i’m at work). lily is still feeling darling, so i let donatello join her. i think he’s catching up--the size difference doesn’t look so drastic as it did six months ago.
this morning:



June 1st of this year:



handsome donatello by himself:



I’m not really sure the UVB does him much good from that angle...



he does seem very relaxed, tho!



i’ve checked the top of the light; it gets just barely warm, i promise!

man hes getting huge jesse. my gosh. haha and lilly looks darling. i feel like a bad mom. havent given my babies a tub soak in forever. we had a hot water constant drip (now its turned into a stream) that maitence never has come out to fix. but it is scalding hot water, and we cant get the drip to stop. but everyone gets sprayed everyday, and were moving in a few days anyways. found a cute little place. was a HUGE house, and the guy cut it into 3 seperate living areas. so we have this nice huge 2 bedroom place. im excited. but the tub is HUGE! the lizards will be happy. lol

i measured them on sept. 26--lily was 41 inches and donatello was 32.

i brought them home baby food today; neither of them is eating. so i squirted some butternut squash with apple into both of them, and then lily gave in and ate part of a leaf. ’tello’s too busy being snotty.

do u have the flu? thats not good... I just got over it too... I’m glad I dont have to squirt food into stitches mouth it sounds so difficult stitch isnt eating as much cuz of breeding season but not little enough to worry, but it is taking him longer to get through a shed cant wait till its over so he can continue growing nice n fast lol... tello is looking soo big stitch isnt much smaller then him n e more lol 5 inches smaller :)

yeah, i was comparing the pics. he’s gone from being about a third her size to a little over half her size. he’s closing the gap! if she’d have a nice, civilized two or three babies i’d be tempted to let them breed next year. they’ll be the same size by then.

wow, stitch has grown! you must be a pretty darned good iguana mom. he’s still real young; probably you won’t get to experience the full joy of breeding season till next year.

i don’t know if it was the flu. i’ve been drinking about a half a gallon of veggie juice a day for about a year now--it’s done my immunities a lot of good. i slept for two days, and now i’m all better (thank you jesus!).
