As you may or may not see by my post history, I was at one time very active here. That was almost 7 years ago now. From about 2006-2009 I had three dragons and fell in love with the reptile and hobby. When I lived in New Mexico it was an easy hobby to maintain. When taking a job in the Washington D.C. area, we very much had to downsize. I had to get rid of my fishtanks, my snakes and unfortunately my bearded dragon. Strangely enough, at the time it wasn't TOO difficult because the beardie I had was unusually mean and aggressive.
In any case, I still love them...still stare at the little babies every time I am in Petsmart, etc. My wife has been reorganizing a section in our home office to make room for "another desk" for our son to start homeschooling. Last night she dropped a bomb on me and said..."This is the spot you can put your enclosure"... "what enclosure"?
"Your new bearded dragon enclosure"
AHHHHH!!!! I freaked out a little bit. She has been struggling with what to get me for Christmas and decided that this would be the perfect gift...and in December I can pick out my beardie.
Sorry for the long story, I am just so happy to be back , when I was new to the hobby I learned so much here about how to perfectly care for my dragon. Looking forward to building a big new enclosure for him/her, but starting off with a 20L. The one really big advantage to living in an area like D.C. is the availability of good produce. When I was in New Mexico I could never find a good variety of tasty greens like bok choy or chard.
