Hello all, sadly my lil guy passed away last night, his name was Tigr & though he only lived to 5 1/2 I still think he had a happy life. His last moments were spent basking under his lamp until his lungs just gave out on him. I'm happy that he no longer feels pain though ofcourse I wish he pulled through.
My plan is to bury him in a bio-degradable sack with a baby lemon tree and plant it in the backyard. The thought of knowing that his body will be absorbed by new life to make yummy lemons is a happy one for me. The next bearded dragon I bring into my home will never again leave it angry land lord or not, I'm gonna take care of it like it was my own child. =)
Thank you all for the help and kind words, I really appreciate the love.
I am so sorry to hear Tigr passed away. How awful for you!
At least he wasn't alone. He will have a nice retirement with your lemon tree as shade..
So sorry for your loss.
I'm SO sorry for your loss, but your idea about the lemon tree is pretty cool. Maybe you could go the Beardie Tails forum and post pics and write about when he was healthy.
I am SO SO sorry for your loss. Glad the little guy didn't live his last days alone. I'm sure he'll make that lemon tree grown big and strong and the lemons will be amazingly delicious! RIP little guy!!!
