Obi is just 2 1/2 weeks shy of being 1 year old! Unfortunately, I'm gonna be out of town on his birthday, so that's why I'm posting now. He is now about 15 in (38 cm) long; I don't have a way to measure his weight, so I haven't been keeping track of that. He's made excellent progress from being a general scaredy-cat to an energetic, curious (and occasionally grumpy) little guy.
Obi still lives in his original 40 gal. breeder. I'd like to get something roomier once I have the space, but for now, I make sure to give him some outdoor time to explore and stretch his legs.

Authentic basking rock, straight from the Ozark Mountains.

I've got a pretty spacious, fenced in backyard, perfect for adventures!

Someone thought he could sneak off unnoticed.


I took these next few pictures after Obi shed. You'll notice a dark patch on his head; those are just unshed head scales. They came off the next day.

I love how his coloring turned out!




Obi gets to hang out indoors too!

I think he enjoys watching tv with me.

That's all for now. I'll make sure to keep you guys updated on all of Obi's happenings. Bye!
