In Reply to: here's the pix of Joey ... :) posted by iZ's mom on June 15, 2002 at 20:28:07:

As iZ'Mom said his colour will improve after he starts to eat.About the tail: after it has been broken,it starts to grow again but the colour will be black.After a few months the colour changes from black to beige.It does not look ugly when it becomes beige, the problem is it will never have scales again.

: with all the changes that have gone on in Joey's life lately, he's prob'ly just too stressed to have much of an appetite yet ...
: the pix look like he's on the young side ... ???
: igs spend all their energy getting *long, FAST* and once they've pretty much reached their full length, *then* they start to bulk up ...

: IMHO, Joey doesn't look that bad, just a bit young is all ... :)

: once things settle down and Joey starts eating, his color will improve ...

: oh ~ parasites/worms ... asap, definitely take a fresh poop sample to the vet and have *them* check for parasites! chances are, Joey's got *some* and being rid of worms (etc) will make a HUGE difference in his overall health/appetite/appearance/etc ...

: here's a baby pic of my iZ after he'd been with me a couple months ...
:

: he looks pretty skinny in that pic, but that's cuz he was growing at an unbelievable rate ... he ate 3 times a day and would wake up in the middle of the nite for a little snack as well ...

: i'll hafta go find a good pic of his bulging biceps + thighs for ya to see what he grew into ... *smile*

: sorry for rambling ...

: Bon. + her guardian dragon ...
