General Tso a year later (and his first ever beard)

Got lots of info from you guys on how to properly raise these wonderful creatures. Thanks a lot! Not really a forum crawler I guess, just an info sponge. Anyway, thought I'd regail you with a year-after story.

General Tso. Born almost a year ago, (bred by Howlingale Dragons). Here he is shortly after I got him.

and here he is a year later (at 22") giving us his first ever black beard when I took him out to check out the spring dandelions.

How to calm him down? Why give him his favorite dendelions of course!

yeah.... that didn't work out so well.

What the cat thought of the whole ordeal...

and moments before being brought back inside for his own safety. (and my peace of mind)

and my imitation

Wow absolutely beautiful orange there, and a fearsome black beard the likes of which the beardie gods will envy. Sadly, your not quite as intimidating

That is an insanely cute black beard! I will not show these pics to my girl. She hasn't met a man yet and I don't want her thinking she needs to lay some eggs looking at your handsome man! :lol:

Boy, is that beard black :shock:

I really like the bars that he has running down his back. Very handsome

yeah I'll have to remember to get some pictures if him in his normal moods. It's the only beard he's ever given us so it warranted a photo op. He's normally very bright with gorgeous blue sidebars, clear nails, etc. Howlingale sent me a beaut.

Welcome back! Thanks for updating us on how General Tso's doing and giving us pic hounds our fix.

He sure grew up to be one very handsome boy! His colors are just amazing, especially the sidebars.

Wow, for his first poofed and black beard, he sure did a great job! Holy guacamole!
How soon after he went back inside did he settle down and change back to his happy self? :lol:

about a minute lol. I wrapped him up in one of his orange towels he loves so much and he took a quick nap.
