Gnomeo

[Ravyn]

A friend just gave me this lil guy as she just didn't really have a clue or wanted to get one on how to take care of him. The only time he has been held in the last year is when I went over there to love on him. So, I did my research, begged her until I was blue in the face and now he is mine YAY!! He is very fat compared to some I have seen so not sure what I need to do about that. The home he was given to me in is a 55+gallon take with a sand floor (I will be trading that for the reptile carpet next payday, I don't like the sand). I named him Gnomeo (yes, from them cartoon movie LOL). My friend things he is about 2yrs old. Hope I have posting of the pics down. Ravyn

Tee Hee, we couldn't resist putting him in the Christmas Village.

Hi Gnomeo! He sure is a big dragon hey? He is quite handsome.
Welcome to the message board Hope you like it here.

Thanks! He does seem to be much bigger than the others I have seen posted, not sure if my friend over fed him or if they usually get that big. For only being held when I would visit he really is quite mellow. I still have a LOT to learn so I am sure I will be on this site, picking everyone's brains for information. The only thing is I worry about my dogs, they will just sit and stare at the enclosure for hours licking their chops LOL. For now the dogs get kicked outside when we take him out. Ravyn

Kicking the dogs out definitely seems for best! We're draggin our Beardie to my parents house for xmas, where two cats, a rottweiler, and a pit bull currently reside. EEP!

Thank you Kaleen! He does seem to be a big boy . I just measured him today, he is about 15.5 inches long-nose to tail and 5 inches across his back. I don't have a scale yet but will by Friday to see what he weighs. I posted some more pictures on the photo discussion. I will definitely be posting alot. I am just having so much fun with him.

Congrats...I feel ya on the dog starring them down... we have 5 dogs who when we first brought them home couldn't stop starring at them. Now thankfully, they kind of ignore them for the most part... still have 1 that keeps peeping around the corner to look at them and hoping I wont catch her starring them down. Hot Rod is in the bottom enclosure and has so much spunk that he'll actually jump up on the ledge and try to get through the glass to them. Needless to say, all the dogs go out of the room when we take them out
