Great team! They are all so different, even from the photos you can see that each has their own character.

Rango is the oldest and he makes sure they know he the Boss

Shyla is sassy and you not just gone bully her

Kioche is the scary one but can be petty

Ziggy is Mr Anything you can do I can do better but can be a sweetheart

Legend is the meanest (lol) and she ready to set it off with anybody

Lava- the baby of the group but not afraid of nothing. He will leap out the tank like it’s nothing.

Rango named after the movie
Shyla named after my goddaughter Nyla I just changed the beginning
Kioche (rehomed from here) but couldn’t pronounce her name and this was the closest to the name she already had
Ziggy (rehomed from here) the name that he already had
Legend (rehomed from Petsmart) original name was Milo and its sound moreso for a boy. But I felt she needed an identity from being a Petsmart animal
Lava (rehomed from Petsmart) original name was Pepper that they picked out of a bowl sounded unloved and cared about. When I saw him he reminded me of Lava but it was a close tie between Lava and Cayenne

**Fun Fact** they all have a 1st and middle name

We have Sinatra, named for Frank. He is supposed to be my lil crooner.
We wanted a female named after one of Frank's girlfriends and she is very sassy so we named her Zsa Zsa after Zsa Zsa gabor (she was sassy to, the slap heard around the world 🌎) but instead of gabor, our girl is Zsa Zsa buglore 😁

Love that, especially to rename in those cases - also shows that now something new begins.

My dragon is named "Taco", had no other name before, got him at 3 months old from a (good) reptile store.
Taco, as of: What is flat, hard, and comes in shades of brown? And as we're here in Chile, it just must be a Taco and not a pancake :D Also call him "Taquito", sometimes in German (as me and my husband are from Germany) "mein Eidechslein" for fun which means "my tiny lizard" ("Eidechse" itself are the small lizards, "-lein" makes it smaller) as it sounds funny contrasting with him begin really big :D

I noticed that in many languages any object or living creature can be turned into the same thing, only small and cute. To do this, just add a few letters to the end of the word. Taco - Taquito, Eidechse - Eidechslein. I tried to find such a rule for the English language, but I couldn't. I wonder if there is something similar in English? (usually to turn something into small and cute I use the adjective little, but this is not quite what is needed and only affects the size of someone or something)

I think we rely on adjectives to accomplish it.Small,little,diminutive, tiny, itty, bitty, itty bitty, ect. We have tons of adjectives for just about anything.

Thank you! I also thought about using adjectives.
What is the usual adjective for something that is both small and cute? Little?

Thats so cool! My beardie's name is Mirage! We named him this because when we first got him we would let him roam and we would look away for just a moment. Then, poof, he's gone. I honestly thought I was imagining him sometimes lol.

As for a middle name; Mirage also has one (well more than one lol). His full name is Mirage Arroyo Qibli Wiegand lol. Weird I know.

Both adjectives. Oh what a cute little beardie, or oh what a tiny little cutie pie, ect. We have a habitat of substituting words to. Interchangeably don't really matter as long as the context works. A beardie for sure isn't a pie in the previous example, but in that context everyone understands what is meant.

a poem by AHBD (THANK YOU SO MUCH! I LOVE IT!)

Sir Henry the dragon
Looking for his dragon girl
Ventures out in to the wide world
His hopes are up but as you can see
There is no dragon girl for Sir Henry
A light bulb goes off and he takes mom aside
Could you perchance get me a mail order bride ?

Hey! We’re the same age! That’s cool!
Hi there a little update we went from a 50 watt heat lamp to a 100 watt basking halogen heat lamp hahaha I saw some comments about it being so close so I made sure to put it a ruler away from her
Has anyone seen this before? Something in the corner of his mouth
Luna is thriving
