He (know his sex due to him showing off both of them Laughing ) lives alone which initially I was worried about as every were I looked said they should be in groups (a way to sell more?). Anyway he seems happy and is still growing like a weed. I bought him Christmas just gone, as a 10.5" (27 cm) youngster, hes currently 21" (55cm) and shedding again.

Thanks for the comments!


When it comes to personality/intelligence if you've owned Rats your on the right track! Worryingly clever. So much so I move the Viv around once a month or so it keep him occupied, as he gets bored easily.

Also in the evening when I let him out to stretch his legs he makes a bee line for the dragons. If none are out he gets in their 8ft Viv and has a play, its like watching a kitten annoy dogs.

@Gemma Gecko: Never owned a Leo not my thing, but I was given 3 rescue African fat tails that were malnourished (since sorted and moved on to a friend) and what all 3 ate in a week wouldn't even last a day with Dexter. Not cheap by any stretch of the imagination!

Thankyou, I'd guess he's plump because he has no competition for food. Also he's in perfect condition not even a scratch on him
