About to cruise to the beach for a swim but here's Vic!

Postby Blotch » Sun Feb 17, 2008 10:43 pm

He just shed Finally - I had to soak him for over an hour - he partially shed then i guess he couldn't be bothered doing the rest - so i helped.

anyway - there's only a cpl of pics (not real great ones), but he's really light in colour which is something I haven't seen on alot of lowlands on this forum. most of them have the brownish colouring whereas Vic is very blue/grey.

Anyway here they are and i'll take more when i get back.

his name is Vic Rattlehed and I have no real idea how old he is. If I was to guess, I'd say 5 or 6.

it's funny - after looking at everyone elses bluey pics, looking at pics of Vic is so different. He's definately different from all the other blueys on here - even different to all the other Blotchies.

I have a good idea for another thread.

Ok, here's a few more pics. In the last one, I was trying to get a pic of the yellow crap at the back of his throat. I have no idea what it is, but I'll keep an eye on it.

Hey Luke, back from the beach yet? I love the amount of grey on him, he has a lot less black than the others I've seen. Did Vic save some scrambled egg for ron.

Nice lizard Blotch.

Looks like a Gippsland blotchie to me, I had a few that were similar greys but bigger blotches - good pattern, nowhere near that big though. And yeh looks like a boy with that long tail.

I have him all by himself up in the back room due to lack of bedroom space - and i never really go up and give him any time except for turning lights on and off. So he's started getting all huffy on me - all i need to do is show him who's boss and start handling him again and he'll be cool.

EDIT - I almost forgot - Leigh - you're a bellend! :P
