Hi, guys! I've always loved animals. Reptiles and birds have always had a special place in my heart next to cats(three that don't mix well, I know. Crazy, right??) I recently went into a local pet store to get some food for my kitties and made a pit stop to the reptile section and spotted the beardies. I knew from a good friend, whose family has several reptiles(a number of beardies) that they were docile, hardy reptiles that were relatively easily maintained and cared for. So I went home and planned! I used an old dresser, converted it. I'm still making tweaks to it but it serves it's purpose.
Onto the good stuff! I don't have a name yet for this dude/dudette. Taken to calling it Beastie for now. Best estimate on length is around 6", maybe 6.5". Guy at the pet store told me a little over 2 months old. Tried live crickets for the first few days but they just climbed to the top of the enclosure. Switched to mealworms today and it was a happy a beardie. I'm excited to watch this baby grow and gain personality traits and quirks! Here's my new baby!
