I think Richter was upsetting her and she wasn't used to being outdoors yet

So here's a puffy/angry outdoor Alucard.
LOL OMG I can just imagine what you found...
Alucard certainly looks unhappy!

My husband and I have been talking about whether or not he'd even be able to run fast enough and/or far enough to get away from us if we put him down in the grass, since the clover was all in bloom all over our backyard. "Daddy" ended up picking him some dandelion greens and clover before promising to save some of the best dandelion and clover patches, and mowing the lawn...
<<< I can assure you , a bearded dragon in full fright - flight moves FAST , you wont be able to keep up , I spent a bit of my childhood chasing beardies and other lizards trying to catch them and I speak form personal experience.
<<< a harness and a leash are a good way keeping him where you want him .
I tried the google experiment, just out of morbid curiosity. :wink: Didn't find anything -- maybe just as well. :mrgreen:
And speaking of "spoiled", Puff is coming very close to having to be spoon fed live bugs (not an easy thing to do ). He's always been a lousy shot with his tongue, but it seems to be getting progressively worse. We're starting to wonder if something is going seriously wrong with his vision or his coordination. We did manage to get a fairly decent video of his attempts, but my husband ran into some technical difficulties trying to email it to the vet to see what she thinks. I think he's still working on it. Meanwhile, I checked his eyes with a little penlight and didn't see any obvious cataracts, but then, I don't have a practiced eye for such things.

I switched to a bar graph so that the length is more acurate, albeit harder to see :/
