Well, haven't been here for a while. Guess I have been a little busy!!

Well, last night Chuck decided to come off his feeding strike of 4 days. The weather went from 80-85 degrees down to 60-65 degrees here, and he just wasnt happy about it!! I am talking about outside temps now, not in my house LOL. But... weather changes, and my Iguana is not happy about it! I kept offering him his usual meals, and he continued to refuse. I finally broke down last night and bought him some tasty treats to get him back on schedule.

Other than that, things have been as normal as you could imagine in a house with 2 roommates, 3 snakes, and an iguana.

Back on the subject of the warm weather that has come and gone... I have noticed a significant increase in activity in Chuck when the weather is nice outside. I can only think that this is due to the fact that I can leave the windows open all day long, and he gets to spend some good quality time outside with me in the afternoons. Oh yeah, did I mention Chuck is a free roaming iguana, with the run of my entire house? I guess when the temperature in the entire house is 80 degrees, he feels less limited to his perch, heating pad, and basking light.

Well, thats my story :-) How's everyone else doing?
