Decided to feed Blueberry today, so I bought him some canned snails(Would have prefered to have had live or with shells, but whatever).

blueberry looks very happy :D i dont think he seems to mind that the snails arent alive...as long as theyre edible and he doesnt have to stretch all too far to eat them, energy efficient lizards as they are.

its..uh....good that you decided to feed him xD

on another note his facial scales are very pretty looking.

Great photos! Mine also love canned escargot, it is a huge hit. I always rinse it well and then soak it in water to remove any excess sodium, it is one of the foods that all of them seem to love.

Nice to see such great photos of Blueberry! :D

These were the zoo med canned snails, so I didn't wash them. People say that they smell but they didn't smell to me. I guess you can say they smelled like fishing bait.

Oh, I haven't tried those. I didn't think of them, I just buy the canned escargot for humans without any flavoring - they have salt in it but I rinse / soak it off. I'm sure the zoo med ones would be fine to feed right out of the can. Those pics look great, is that a new camera? Or have you just been holding out on us forever?
