Reason number one you should attend Chicago Herpetological Society meetings: Nakajima WILL sit on your shoulders or lap or chest and WILL make it known how much fun she thinks people are. Also she might tell your kids secrets.
I still can't believe how amazing she is with kids. This is not a domesticated animal! This isn't a dog with a drive to work with people! This is a lizard who simply loves human interaction, and I am so grateful she ended up with me. I miss Kaiju every day but she makes the absence tolerable, and I'm so glad she and I have an avenue through CHS to share her with the world.
Did you know many lizards will inflate and flatten themselves to absorb more heat and UV while basking? They will also do it after feeding in order to help with digestion and is commonly referred to as "pancaking"! 🏜
As a French person her “bakery” makes me sick. How can she call what she is doing baking? I have seen amateurs bake better than her.
Her baking empire is just a sand castle. I wonder how much depth her business must be, I doubt one client is ever coming back unless she pays them to advertise her “baking”
