So I was misting his cage earlier and he decided he was going to keep me company. He jumped right out of the cage (about a 2' distance) up on my chest, climbed over top of my head and just chilled out on my shoulder! I've had him about a month (got him thrown in on a trade) and he's growing like a weed(about 5" in overall length since I got him, Wow!), I handle him often so he's pretty well tame for a columbian though he is a little flighty in his cage and huffs and puffs for the first few seconds when I pick him up but once he realizes he isn't being restrained he is super cool with me and doesn't mind hanging out at all and he has yet to offer a bite or attempt to bite. Anyway enjoy the pics I think there pretty cool.

Thanks for looking:thumbsup:

Jeff

I have 4 beardies my self I kept as pets but I sold off all my breeders and holdback juvies last year to work more with ball pythons.

Congratts on the tame Columbian. I had one back in the late 80s and it was a ferocious beast. I have a young adult Argentinian now that is the biggest sweety I've ever met.

I've actually come across several people who have Columbians that are becoming tame lately. I wonder if there are more captive bred available these days, as I know in years past almost all of them were wild imports.
