Fluffy was born in captivity, so he's well familiar with being handled, but he has moments where just wants to be left alone and gets all wriggly until he's put back in his enclosure. All the lizards we've had have had their own personalities; some, even captive-born don't let go of their self-defence instincts, while some wild-born can be the most docile around.
I love how the one on the left has already mastered the "looking guilty about something", which is a Whippet special skill.

She’s a little sweetie who just wants to get a pat from everyone. And yes their loss
When she was a skinny pup we did think she had kelpie in her and indeed the shelter billed her as Staffie/kelpie x but we got a DNA test done and mostly she was 51% American staffie, about 48% English and about 8 other random breeds which seem more like a statistical probability on the test to me.
The colour differences in the same staff litter are amazing, the last pup I bought came from a litter of 10 and there were a few different colours. All black, white and black, all white, white and brindle, brown, brown and brindle, brown and white, even the eye colours were all different.
