Oh my goodness! What a difference! Beautiful dragon :)

9/23/17 This morning when I woke up, I was sitting in my chair, drinking my coffee and watching Snake ( I had just turned on his lights). After a few minutes passed by I noticed he was doing something different. This was the first time I have seen him puff up his beard. It was so cute! A...

Yes its a probe one, I've read that those were better. He's been doing great. I'm able to feed him crickets by hand and he seems more calm now after the relocation process.

9/11/17 Snake has been doing great since we got him home. I was able to take him out of his viv and let him rest on my chest while I was proof reading some papers. The little tike fell asleep! I'm taking that as a good sign, and that he's getting use to me. His head is about to shed soon so he...
