I love those pics.Thanks for sharing.Are you not afraid that he will take of ? what did you do when you first took him out side.Was he scared ? my Leonidas starts to freak out when I take him out side and put him in the gras.He starts to act all wild and tries to bite and he never bites me inside the house.The only way I can take him out side is if I put him on a reptile leash and he is hiding under my shirt ( I have to shirts on so I will not get scratched up ).He will stick his head out and some times comes out and goes on my shoulder.He is doing fine when he is on me but I can't put him down.I sure hope he will change that behavior because I would like for him to be able to bask out side,too.

I started right away by putting him on our outside table to bask, I then moved him to the ground and eventually the planner where I'm going to build his outdoor home. He was fine from the beginning, I give him space and let he roam, however I always keep a close eye on him and if he starts to wonder farther than I'm comfortable I go get him.

nice pictures.Now I don't feel so bad about people giving me a hard time because my boyfriend had almost no clothes on when I made the video with him and Leonidas because you have a picture with your pants down .Does Baboo always go up your pants ? should we still call him Sancho or should we call him by his new name ?

Thanks. Yea, call him Sancho or Baboo, we use Baboo form my son, but I still call him Sancho as well. Thankfully, he does not alway go up my pants. I'd been sitting with my leg up on the coffee table. I dozed off and before I know it I'm awaken by rough skin rubbing my calf. I tried to pull him out the bottom, BIG MISTAKE! So the rest is as you see it. I've been more cautious since then.
