Oh, it feels so nice after a good shed.... :D

You got a problem with that???

Since I'm in the mood to share, here are the pic's of her growth since babyhood...

She's gorgeous! It's awesome you're keeping track of her growth like that.

ohhhh sammy!

Postby aggiegirl » Fri Oct 26, 2007 10:13 am

Sammy has turned out to be a beautiful skink! Of course I'm a little partial since she is fully sibling and almost identical to Charlotte! Funny but I didn't realize how much their colors and head shapes have changed since we got them. It is fun to watch them grow. I got my other bluey at 6 months and his growth rate was much slower. I love the sheds because it is almost like opening a package---you never know what the inside looks like! Thanks for sharing! :ohyes:
Diane---Glad to see that Sammy has "chubby cheeks" too. I figured that I was just overfeeding Charlotte. :wink:

Awwwww, she was soooo itty bitty teeny tiny! I love when they're all little like that! Chuffie is such a monster at 22 inches, its hard to imagine that he was ever small!
Great pics, I love Sammy's little over-hanging upper lip! Sweet face, and she's such a chunka :love: !

Such a sweetie. It's exciting and painful all at the same time when they grow up. :roll: No more baby :cry: ... Big happy skinker :) It's wonderfully confusing!

Yeah, look at that! That's about 100 times faster than Eugene's regrowth...it's even more far along than his right now.....wow.

Thanks for the updates!

I thought someone would say that! :wink:

Thanks for the comments guys. She was puny before. The runt of the bunch in fact! I hope she catches up with her siblings...

Hey Zach,

Didn't Eugene lose more of his tail though? Sammy only bit off like an inch of hers. :roll: The things bluey's will do to get attention..... :wink:

Eugene lost....I'd say maybe just over an inch. But still, his regrowth is nowhere near as far along as Sammy's.... :scratch: I'm going to say it's because she's a baby so their constant growth in body really aids in their tail growth as well.

Well, I guess it was a blessing that it happened now. Let's just hope she doesn't develop a taste for tail again in the future! :lol:
