Hello everyone, my name is Lyle and I just got my very first dragon, Phil (will become Philis if it turn out Phil is a female). I have been lurking here on the site for a couple of weeks doing research and reading a lot in preparation for getting a dragon. I have had Iguanas in the past and have had salt and freshwater aquariums for most of my life, but I am excited about adding Phil to the family.
So far he seems VERY happy in his new home. I got him yesterday and almost immediately he began basking. after a few hours I put a mealworm in the tank and he immediately pounced on it. Then I added a few crickets and again he hunted them with great excitement. He has not yet pooped but I am hoping that he will have done that by the time I get home from work today. If not I will give him a nice bath and see if that gets him going.
Anyway, I am excited to join the community and continue to learn about my wonderful new pet! And now a couple of pictures of my little guy.
