Hi!!! My first post about William was made about a year ago, getting William was terrifying, I had studied so much about them but to me he always seemed unhappy, scared and I felt so guilty, like everything I did bothered him or I did it wrong. Since a year has passed I wanted to update everyone, he is an extremely confident, happy boy that shows off his beautiful turquoise colors daily. His pattern on his back grew with him and I praise him for how beautiful he is, he seems to smile back at me lol. 

I have since discovered that he HATES red bell peppers as a treat and will fling them away with his tail. 

His favorite staple green is dandelion greens, he likes it when I set them up by standing them up between rocks to forage.

He also once had carrots as a treat and I was scared he was going to choke because I shredded them and he slurped it down like a big noodle instead of biting it.  >.<

This is partially a 'We made it!' post because my first one was so riddled with anxiety and panic, but it's also an encouragement post to those who have a very skittish Uro. I didn't think William would ever be a pet I could hold in my hands, but I left him alone for about 5 months and tried slowly coaxing him onto my hands with some millet seeds after. It's been almost a year since I've first gotten him and he now DIVES onto my hands.

Thanks for your help getting him here!!
