Sidney the 'Mature' Ambanja

[Kent67]

Anybody still around from when I got Sid? He was the start of me getting back into Ambanjas a few years ago. He bred a bunch of times the first couple of years but hasn't strung together more than three head bobs in a row for quite a while now. He's calmed down a lot as he's aged so at least he's handleable now. He is also the sire of Gargamel that everyone knows from here on the forums. I got Sid as a full-grown wild caught in summer 2008 so he must be at least 5 years old now. So this is Sid today, looking like he's about to shed tomorrow, along with one of his grandsons.

Basking and wishing I'd leave him alone:

Handsome guy:

Grandpa

Patrolling from on top of the vertical blinds; mad there's someone using the Rain Dome in his cage while he was away:

It's great to see all the Ambanja's lately!

Sid and I appreciate all the nice comments. Ambanjas have always been my favorite locale and he's a pleasure to have around.

He may be a senior but that is one beautiful boy you have there. Having one for a number of years is just so rewarding. Just keep on keeping on.
