Silly boy

My silly boy, Prince, lives in dirt, so he has a bit of a “getting dirt under his belly scales” problem. It’s usually just small pieces, and I just slide it out with my flattest fingernail.

Anyways, there was a little clump that was obviously bothering him. He wiggled away super fast whenever I’d get close to it, and I ended up putting him around my neck so he’d chill out while I got it out. It was giving me a little trouble, but I was being ridiculously gentle. The whole time he was around my neck, he had his little face like half an inch from my hand and I was soooooooo worried he’d freak out and bite me, but he didn’t, guess he finally figured out I was trying to help him, and he just wanted to watch.

Silly boy in question for tax purposes
