I have had my breardy Jeb for about a year now. he is my first reptile I have owned and so far pretty laid back for the most part took to me pretty well. He is three going on 4 this year he is kind of a big boy. I asked some one at a local pet store about the scratching at the tank they said his tank might be to small but I have the biggest one i can buy for him I think with out special ordering one. The drooling is kind of concerning after reading a little on here hes only done it a couple of time but it has been months apart.
