Just wanted to take a minute to show off our new beardie! My four-year old daughter has wanted a pet lizard for some time, so after much reading and research, we now have this litle girl (we think) that she has named "Sandy."
We don't know exactly how old she is (we were asking a lot of questions, and kind of forget that one!), but she is about 3.5 inches long nose to vent and 8 inches nose to tail tip.
Sandy is super-friendly to everyone and loves her crickets and greens, but not so sure on the whole bath thing yet.
Thanks all for all of the great info on the forum!
Yup-Sandy is a sweetie. She is great with my daughter, and my daughter has been great with her. Last night we let Sandy go into a rubbermaid container with some play sand (supervised, of course). My daughter was trying to show Sandy how to dig in the sand. Sandy pretty much just looked at her as if to say "What are you doing making such a mess of my sandbox?"
She gives us the look in the picture every day. The only cuter expression she makes is the one when she is making herself comfortable on my stomach in the evening. She really makes quite the production of wiggling herself in until she's comfy and then falls promptly asleep.
