The joy this thing brings me is immeasurable
Oh yeah I totally understand. When I first rescued my male Coconut, he got filthy and scared the crap out of me. Previous owner wasn’t sure of morph but he’s a murphy patternless and all white

I hope people don’t take this the wrong way but sometimes when I’m stressing over every single thing and picking up the slightest behaviour change I try to remind myself that some Leos have lived very long lives with no uvb/supplements/varied diet/enrichment and neglectful owners and that my baby is doing just fine and that even humans have random weird moments that don’t threaten their overall health

I too was over protective and a nervous wreck over my child reptilian;) As long as your Husbandry is correct you should be fine :) They are more Robust than you think.

Do you know their morph by chance? This is the closest I’ve ever seen to my first leo!
mine looks just like this as well.. my guy is giant jungle edit: he's a retired breeder that I got from an expo so they gave me the information on him
I was told a reverse tangerine stripe but idk how accurate because I have no husbandry info

I’m out here worried beyond belief and she’s just sitting there like “mother where are the worms?” Smh
I understand the paranoia as I just got my little one this past weekend so I’m NEW NEW. I’m in love though. Pimento is so cute!

Awww our babies look so similar!
I understand. I rescued my little girl almost a year ago, and I still freak out if I think something is wrong
