Hey guys. Yesterday I finally decided to make the trip to my local Petsmart and buy absolutely everything I'd need for a pet..including a Bearded Dragon. I'm pretty sure I have him sexed as a male - he's still pretty tiny but under his tail I can already see 2 bumps. The people at Petsmart had no clue how old he is, but he's about 5" long. So, without further ado, allow me to introduce to you my bearded dragon (which I have yet to get a name for. :lol: )

And here's his home. It's not huge, but I plan on getting a much larger one soon. It keeps him happy for now, though.
He loves the basking spot up in the corner of the tank. He's been doing the normal 'new pet' stuff..running in circles, pawing at the glass, stuff you'd expect in new surroundings for a pet. He's living off mealworms and crickets right now, until tomorrow when the store opens to buy greens. He's got his UVB and incandescent lights on one side of the tank, so there's a nice temperature gradient for thermoregulation. He's already docile and seems to have taken a liking to me. I can't wait for all the fun I'm gonna have with him.
(P.S. - name ideas are always appreciated! :lol: )
