I NEED MY BED SLAVE!!! *Pics will be added

Not open for further replies.
Well, my aunt came on January 14th with her two boys, so we moved Zinger out of me-proclaimed lizard room and into my room. This happened on the second night with Zinger. I have to read 120 minutes a week for my reading teacher, so I was in bed reading when suddenly, I look over and Zinger wants me to hold him.
So
I get Zinger out of his cage and lay him in bed next to me where he snuggles down in the covers and rests his head against my leg. BIG MISTAKE.

So I had read an hour and decided to read the rest tommorow as I had finished that book in a short amount of time and hadn't checked out another. I looked down at my leg and Zinger was OUT. I tried to wake him up a little and he did the whole "crack open your eye, then butt wiggle into a better position." I didn't want to wake up the perfect little angel, so I carefully transferred his head to my sheets and got out of bed.

After about 20 minutes and showing everyone in the house, I was going to play it safe and put him back into his enclosure. I put him in even though he clearly disagreed. Later on, I was going to go to sleep. So I layed down, obviously, in my bed. I was drifting into the early phases of sleep when EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! A VERY High pitched noise rips me from my premature slumber. I flip on the light and Zinger in scratching the glass with the very tip of his nails to make a horrible schreeching noise. I told my mom and dad he was making a racket to sleep in my bed. They said to ignore my poor baby. Not a chance.

So I go back in my room and comfort him. I flick the light back off. Once again, almost asleep when BA-Ba-BAM Sounds like something is banging/vibrating. I look at Zinger and he is balancing on his rock shaking back and forth on the other ones. His basking rock is balanced on two others. It doesn't fall, but it shakes, and he was using his body to make it shake back and forth and make a BANGING noise. So once again, I stuff him under his rock with his blanket and tell him to go to bed.

Almost asleep...SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.....Something scraping. I look over and he is moving his hide across the sand. "ZING!" I don't bother and try to go back to sleep.

Then, BANG BANG BANG! He is ramming his head into the cage. I get up, hold him, and explain to him he cant sleep in my bed.

For the grand finale, I had been asleep for twenty minutes when he got on his log. The scraping of scales on wood woke me up and I turned on the light just in time to see him LAUNCH! himself against the glass. "AH! Zing baby, are you ok!!?" I went and picked him up and he cuddled me. Then I gave him a kiss and set him in his cage. He then went by his log and laid down. I covered him with his "Blanky" and he went to sleep. Finally.

Anyway, just thought you guys would find this amuzing. To Dragons: Don't get any ideas.

Good lord Zing has gotten big!
What a mucky pup!
You know it is silly that Ive had two dragons with tail nips so when I see "normal" dragons I always think how riddiculously long their tales are :laughhard:
Dex was missing about 2" and Ruben is missing at least 4"


Btw Hayley and Hayleigh are the english versions of your name Haley :)

Haley, someone sent me a private post asking about Scorch's bed and if he was sleeping in it etc. So if figured I would post back on here in case there was anyone else curious about bedding. Of course nothing is better than when they cuddle up with us, but they can't stay there all night.
I love the pics of Zing eating baby food. That is something we haven't tried yet. Does he love it? I guess baby food is messy no matter who is eating it human or beardie. He is too cute. Does he mind getting his face cleaned after?
Re Bed:
Since we made him the bed he has slept in there every night and is still there in the morning when we get up to turn on his UV light (between 6-6:30am). Typically at night he will come and hang out on the couch for a while and then when he gets sleepy, cuddle up in my robe and fall asleep. Then I will place him into his bed and put his blankey on top. His bed is only put in at night when I put him in it and then taken out first thing in the morning. He will usually stir a little when I do this like a small child does who you carry to bed. He has a black light that stays on at night to keep him warm.
His bed is made from a 1'x 9" x 5" wood box we got from Micheal's craft store. I used a small accent pillow inside and bought some camo fleece to make his sheets and blankey. My son thinks I made his pillow too big so I will be taking some of the stuffing out so he won't be sitting up so high. Scorch loves it and looks soo comfy when he is sleeping! This was just a temporary solution because we are getting ready to make him a much larger custom viv that will have a bedroom. LOL Here are some pics of his current bed.

Yes, Zinger LOVES his babyfood. He doesn't like getting his face cleaned, so I just give him a bath instead of wiping him off.


So you don't think it would be too dangerous to get Zing a bed? I suppose maybe if I close the door. How old is your sweetie?

They told us he was 2 months old when we brought him home. He was 6" total and we have had him since November so he should be a little past 5 months now. We really don't know if he is a boy or girl yet. My 15 year old son is not happy with the name Scorch and thinks we should call him Izzy, so I am sure there will be a name dispute once we can tell.
I put his bed in his viv at night and move out his daytime cave that he goes in to nap. My bed sits really high off the ground and I think my Husband would be jealous if I tried to bring the lizard to bed. He thinks I pay more attention to my animals than him already. LOL. But if you don't move around too much when you sleep and you have a sound sleeper like Scorch who doesn't get out of his own bed maybe it would be ok to leave it out of the cage. I would try it for a week or so inside the cage first to see if Zinger stays put at night.

Well, once he goes to bed, he stays. My concern is, he'll see that he has no limitations on movement and take an "Adventure"

I am working on specs for a new cage for Scorch as well but am not sure just how large to make it. I know they need at least 50 gal when they are full grown but want to go larger. What are the dimensions of the 120 gal tank you are getting? Are you building it yourself?

The 4' x 2' x 2' tanks people frequently talk about on here are 120 gallons, if that helps.

Thanks, I have decided to either go with a 4 or 5 foot long viv. We just finished building custom home, I am not a contractor but have built several homes owner builder, so I have access to all the construction trades I would need to help with the project. My husband says he wants this to be the first and last, so I want to make sure I am doing it right.

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!
