Being new to the beardie life we bought him for Christmas was told he was a fancy beardie. Really needing to know what exact type of beardie we have. We purchased him from PetSmart which when we purchased he was less than 4 wks old biggest mistake ever. But since being home and to vet the lil guy/gal has been great.

Haha :) I see the pictures now :)

Based on the pictures, your little dude doesn't have any visual morphs present.

He's not a hypo, he is not a leatherback, not a zero or witblits, he doesn't appear to be trans, and he most likely isn't a dunner.

Typically the dunners have a bit different of a pattern, and as they get bigger you can really tell with the scale differences, but I own a couple dunners and im about 100% sure yours isn't.
Plus, we haven't seen any dunners come out of petsmart, at least yet.

So honestly I think yours is just a standard dragon, no morphs. I'm not sure how petsmart decides whether or not a dragon is "fancy" but it's really not a term used by any reputable breeders.

All that being said, he still is super cute! And looks very happy to be out of petsmart and with you! :D

What's his name? You should make him an intro thread in the introductions section or a thread in the beardie tales section so we can follow along with him :)

You can always get another dragon from a good breeder down the road when you are more experienced and comfortable around them :)

Many petstore dragons end up growing up to look really quite beautiful. He looks like a sweetie either way.

My oldest son named him "Drako" from the movie "Dragon heart". I am a huge fan of dragons anyway love them so I probably will get another dragon sometime down the road from an actual breeder.

I'm with brandon on this one. I have a Citrus Leatherback Dunner and, a Common Dragon, I love them both.
Morphs or no morphs they are still little cuddlebugs!!! Just love little Draco for what he is.

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
