had william out for a play
some belly shots

my arm went a bit blue after he had been holding on here



having a climb

think were bonding now, still a little wary of him though





had no hissing or striking at all since i got him. think has as wary of me as i am of him.
also the i think the shed i measured had stretched more than i thought, my bed is 6ft an hes about a foot longer ish so about 7ft instead of the nearly 8ft i got from his shed

mine is 11 months old around 3ft at a guess and weighed 272g if i remember rightly but being a sonoran will not get huge, between 5-6ft

sometimes jumping in at the deep end is the way to go, you certainly learn quicker that way. poor thing being in a rescue centre but at least he has a good home now.

if you like feisty you want to have a go at getting my jcp out, keeps you on your toes lol

i bet that keeps him busy. at least you know he was well looked after before you got him.

it wouldn't surprise me if the swindon meet you organise was the closest one to me. not been able to find any in somerset

William looks to be doing really well - congrats. Early days, but you both look to be bonding. Bet he's happy with his very own human.
