Greetings from southern NJ

[Piranha21]

Hello all, I wanted to introduce myself and "Phil". I got Phil about two months ago through a grant from Petsmart and petsintheclassroom.org. I teach elementary music and Phil has become a mascot of sorts. I am thoroughly enjoying the growing process of a bearded dragon and look forward to learning much more.

Hi,
How old is Phil? Do you have any pictures to share? My Lizzie is almost 4 months old and growing every day. Do you have Phil in the classroom? Your student must love it!

I'm in NJ as well.....wish my teachers had awesome pets! We had a stinky hermit crab in 3rd grade and the bio teacher in high school had two rabbits but we couldn't touch them.

Phil is about 4 months old or so in my estimation. I have had him for about 2 months now. My students love him. I pick a different class each week (as I teach every class in the school grades k-5 music) to be "Phil's Feeders". Students from the class come each morning and afternoon to feed, check on him, etc. It's fun to see just how much they enjoy watching him grow.

This is Phil's set-up at school.
