I should say I'm curious because I currently own both extremely tame as well as crabby dragons, even though they've all received the exact same proper handling from babyhood. I feel like they're kind of like children...you can try to raise them all the way you like, but they all have very...

Has anyone been successful breeding "for personality/temperament"? Or are personalities completely random? For example, if someone bred 2 very tame dragons, would most of the babies turn out the same with proper handling? Or if someone bred dragons that were "grouchy", would the babies be mean...

I personally haven't done this, but I know of a prominent breeder who has. This breeder sometimes breeds a female to two different males and gets babies from both fathers. Perhaps to "kill two birds with one stone"? I'm not sure.

Sounds good to me! I feel a bit more at ease. :) thanks!

Oops sorry the 5mo old is actually closer to 5.5 mo. Not that it'll make a big diff. ;)

Two of my males go crazy in the morning. Running, climbing, glass-dancing...until they poop...ha. Then they're calm again. Their poop isn't as formed as the others though...it's not a pile of mush, but it's not quite as solid either. Should I be worried? Might turn into a health question, rather...

That makes sense. Thanks for the info!

Ok. Does it depend more on the age or the length of the dragon? My 18" is almost 5 months, 17" almost 7 months and 14.5" almost 4 months.

Oh! How old is your dragon?

They all pooped today so we're in the clear! Yay :blob5:

Ok. That's a little reassuring. I'm just hoping they poop tomorrow and then I'll be worry-free. :)

I'm away on a business trip and my helpful husband is taking care of my young dragons. 14", 17", 18". I taught him how to feed veggies first then crickets later. I didn't even get into showing him the superworm bin as I only give those as treats. They're assorted in size so I only give the...

I hate posting after myself so much but I thought it best to keep things updated as much as possible. After reading in a few places that you can try hand feeding bugs I decided to give it a shot this morning. I cut back on the critical/carnivore care formula feeding (with the exception of the...

I think the lights have been on long enough (1.5hrs) so I checked the temps. His basking log temps range from about 90 (the lowest end away from the lights) and close to 105 (at the very top of the log, nearest the lights). Edit: Not as hot as the Powersun (>5 degrees difference) so hoping...

Hi Tracie! He has his moments of great energy and other moments of lethargy. He still isn't eating any bugs though. I feel so helpless! :( I actually traded out his Powersun today for a basking light and brand new Reptisun 10.0 fluorescent tube UVB. Although the Powersun works PERFECTLY for my...

Hi Tracie! Thanks! Yes he's off the Albon now. Just on the Reptaid & Benebac, if that counts as meds. :) Mushu is a hypo trans. He is housed in a completely different tank...has been since day one. :) He has been about 12 inches from the light, but previously about 8. I started him on the...

Also forgot to say that since giving him Reptaid 2 days ago, he seems a bit more active than normal. Hope this is a sign that he'll eat soon! Edit: This is a photo comparison of him. 2.5 months was when he was shipped to me. 3 months was his thinnest...after attempting to feed him bugs...

Also, what do you recommend for feeding portions of the carnivore and critical care? For now, since he's so small, I'm doing a pinch of each type at each feeding. Although one feeding per day I'll do two pinches of the carnivore care instead. I hope I'm not overdoing it! He poops 2-3x/day, so I...

Hi, I'm really hoping someone can help me: I have 2 beardies in separate enclosures. One is older (Seze) and growing rapidly, the other is tiny (Mushu) and hasn't grown at all in a couple weeks. Here is my setup info: viewtopic.php?f=44&t=195001 The only big change I've made since posting is...

Very pretty coloring! They really do morph :)
