Bebop-A-Lula
This is my rough skinned newt,
She's my little Dragon, cause somethimes she curls up into a ball and looks like a dragon sleeping on her gold.

Is this a California species?
I was lucky enough to see the local native in its habitat years ago. A very cool experience and in very cool water!!!!
Had one as a pet but it got out of its tank and fell into the floor furnace. Or at least we think that what that awful smell was!!!
Not funny really but why am I laughing now!!! Old age sure twists a person's sense of humor!

Here is a dumb video of her while chewing on a juicy waxworm. Don't worry, you can't see the worm.

She is awesome, such a beautiful colour. I like the video, it was interesting watching her eat her meal. She should have a treasure chest in with her too.

Hey Tony, you come from the Northwest? Nice.
Sue, thanks. She had a mate who died, his name was Kookie.

Yep, I'm an Oregonian. That's why I don't grow Dends and Vandas like the real Floridiots. |
