decided yesterday as it's hot i would take byron out in the garden for some sun, he really didn't like it.
i know afrock's can spaz out in open space's but he has been to a couple of reptile meet's without a problem so though he would be fine
took him down in a tub but when i removed the lid he properly freaked was trying to run as i was trying to grab him along with hissing very aggressively and tagging my jean's managed to get him back in the tub but he freaked again as i went to put him back in the viv at which point he tagged my hand as i grabbed him.
lucky it was just a glancing tag, he is only around 7ft but that was scary an wont be taking him in the garden again
didn't leave much of a mark
problem is as i had to pin a grab him twice it will have broken the trust i had with him so need to get back in his good book's again but bribed him with a huge 900g+ guinea pig so that's a start
one full up afrock, that's his feed done for the month

Well at least you know what his opinion on garden walks is.
Hopefully he'll forgive and forget by the time he's digested that yummy gp. |

| Oops, his defence is he was tired, he was yawning and you tripped and fell onto his teeth and he even hissed to make you aware of the trip hazard. |
