Introducing Peperonie

[maximumbuttitude]

Hello this is my friend Peperonie the lump.

2013 Northern 8.2.JPG

From James Wilson's litter A this year, just hit 5 months of age and is already over 15 inches. I've had my little tooter for almost 3 months now and I love my friend!! wow ah!!

Peperonie is pretty standard looking for a Northern from what I've seen, but has nice saturated colors and a super precious face and WAY TOO MUCH personality. Pepple basically always does adorable things all the time.

Peperonie might be a little bit chubby but that's where you magical expert wizards come in - I'm honestly not sure. Peppers gets greens and squash with a bit of berry every other day, with some lean boiled beef or chicken in it, calcium every other feed (I just had a ton of snails come in so that will be a big part of pep's diet soon), as much diversity as I can manage with the veggies too. Peperonie does not eat the namesake processed meat, but totally would love it I'm sure.

Anyway uh not sure where this was going so I'll just end with this super handsome pic

Wow! Gorgeous northern. I have a Litter B baby, so our skinks are half-siblings! Outback fathered both litters.

I'm no expert, however what you listed as food sounds great. For a five month old Peperoni sounds huge! Not in a negative way though, going by the fourth picture you posted, the one where Peperoni's climbing the log, Peperoni looks solid, but not overweight. A birds eye view or top down picture might help determine if Peperoni is a little bit too chunky - but I can't really offer experienced advice on that front, I too needed help to determine if my Eastern, Gizmo was overwheight (he's just solid, haha).

Peperoni has a gorgeous eye colour, in the second picture you posted. I have to agree with you there, Blueys have so much personality and it looks like Peperoni has plenty of it.

Wow, I picked him as a James Wilson baby straight away he's gorgeous!

What a lovely skink, you are very lucky!

Starbucks is sooo different and caramelly, but I can definitely see the family resemblance in the face. Cutie babie!

Thank you! Peperonie the lumpy puppy appreciates the compliments too! Here's a top down -

One other question while I'm here (if you guys would put up with my superdumb beginner questions). I haven't trimmed Pepples' nails yet, but probably around the end of the month I'll do it. Does this look like a reasonable nail length right now?

Yeah looks completely fine.

[Susann]

If you go to cut them still, just nip off that thinner sharp sliver towards the ends and that should make a huge difference in the sharpness you feel.

Welcome to the forum. Here no questions are superdumb questions, just some are more often asked than others. Everybody here is happy to help and answer any questions. Hope you enjoy the site and amazing bts.

[Dakota]

You think your questions are dumb? Look at my questions when I started.

I still remember your first post where you called a perfectly normal looking indo an axanthic.

Things have changed...a little.

Oh my god, so embarrassing!! And how I made a post like 2 weeks after joining stating I'm sorry for making everyone hate me And the battles Katrina and I have had. and how I tried to make it look like a I knew everything about BTS when I joined..

Those were the days (although only like 9 months being on here).

Wait- have they changed?

[TJreptiles]

Who's Katrina?

So you mean they didn't give you the drug when you joined?

[Dakota]

I'll have around 16,000 posts in 4 years if I keep it up.
