Wow it's been a long time since I posted on this site! Last week a friend of mine offered me a beardie he had rescued from his nephews. He wasn't much of a lizard person and he knew that I had one already so he asked me if I would take it. I jumped at the oppurtunity because I wanted another beardie anyway. We think this new one is a girl and we think our original beardie Samson is a boy! It is so different to have 2 beardies. In just 1 week I have seen behaviors I had never seen with just 1 beardie. Also Samson has perked up a little. He used to just sit around all day looking kinda bored! Now he runs around the viv bobbing his head :) Well here is my new baby Firecracker (me and hubby wanted to call her Delilah but the kids wanted Firecracker because she is a little trouble maker).

Thanks everyone :)

I got Samson on December 26, 2009 and he was about 2 or 3 months when I got him. I got him at Petco and got no information at all on him. I guess he would be about a year old if I am right about how old he was when we got him. Now Firecracker I was told by the guy who rescued her that she was 2 years old. If she is 2 years old then the poor thing was severly mistreated! I don't think she is 2 years old. I think she is younger but who knows. If she is 2 she is way smaller then Samson who is 1. I am telling you some people really suck!!!! At least now she is getting proper care :)

The other day I weighed and measure both.
Samson is 18 inches from head to tail and he weighs 467 grams
Firecracker is 16 inches head to tail and weighs 199 grams

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
