This is my new dragon Rosie. She is currently 6 months old. I didn't measure her yet but I say she is roughly 15 to 17 inches. She is veryyyy friendly and tamed. She is a Cawley Red Leatherback and I got a very good deal on her! She eats practically anything! I have her in a 40 gallon tank with a 150 watt heat lamp and a 20 watt UVB. I will be adding another UVB shortly. Here are some pictures!
Rosie is on the left and Daisy (my girlfriend's dragon) on the right. Daisy is 8 weeks old and is a citrus leatherback.
On the ride home enjoying the sun! Very good car rider!
Her colors!
Her width!
Rosie and I
Here is Rosie this morning. I didn't have any greens because my local grocery store was closed when I brought her home. But she ate 20 crickets and is very happy
I have a Rosie, too. She has similar colors. I think you and your Rosie will be just as crazy about each other as my Rosie and I are. Both beautiful dragons. Congratulations.
I also have a 'Rosie' She is 5yo now, though I don't know her hatch date. It was estimated that she was about 3.5 months old when we got her at the end of September of 2008.

Rosie has been a little fussy. Last night I fed her around 20 crickets like usual and then I let her bask for awhile. After that I wanted to hold her and watch T.V. with her like we usually do, but she was being really skittish. Didn't want me to hold her, didn't want anything to do with me. So I figured maybe she was tired. I turned the lights off and she went wild. Running on every side of glass. Just freaking out. So then again I tried to hold her and no luck. I then thought, she must still be hungry. So I threw about 10 more crickets in there and then she started to cooperate with me. Girl dragons usually like this? Lol.
Rosie has been doing well. Her head is starting to shed now! It is so cute! She has been really calm with me latley. I think it is because she is getting use to me now. We watched a movie on Netflix together and she was pretty calm and tamed. Really enjoyed it!

I gave our Rosie that name after she was one year old and she had started to turn red. Here's a picture of her, I hope you don't mind me sharing her with you on your thread. Here's one of both our girls.
Rosie looks really red when she's sin the sun and Squirt (the small one) has grown more since that pic was taken.
That is such a cute picture! Of course I don't mind Yeahh she is so pretty! I am getting a leash and will start taking her with me where I go more often. I want people to see her beauty
Here is an update on Rosie! She is doing really well. She is so calm and sweet. She is just precious! She just finished her shed on her head and she is now shedding on her body. I discovered that she is getting a red beard (hopefully!). But I have been taking her to Petsmart with me when I need to grab a few things and everyone loves and adores her. She is getting use to her leash but it will take time. The first time I took her she was pretty dark, not skittish, just dark. She brightened up once we were in Petsmart though. The last time I took her she wasn't bad. I want her to get use to me taking her places and meeting new people. I really want to start taking her most places I go and show her off! She is eating very well but I am still have a hard time getting her to eat some greens. She ate Escarole once in awhile, I am trying Kale but she really doesn't like it. I am picking up some organic collard greens tomorrow and a few grapes. She loves her grapes! My silkworm colony and my business (Florida Fresh Silkworms) will be mainly her diet really soon! (I am so sick of crickets...) My business is going great as well! Here are some pictures!
