We never expected to get another dragon, but our neighbours next door wanted to give away Cleo, as he was called. We'd babysat him before, he's such a sweetheart. We nicknamed him Velcro because when he snuggles he never wants to go back to his viv, he hangs on as if he's made out of velcro.

So here he is. Today was his first day with us. He ate 13 supers and ate some squash, not bad for the first day he was here. He's only in a 30 gallon tank, which will be ok for now. He's 18" long but weighs only 200g. We figure he's probably 2 yrs old. Our neighbours rescued him last fall, they found him and a female (which they named Puff) on Craig's list. They were in a 30 gallon dirty tank, with sand and a huge log that took up 1/2 the space in the tank. Leo was at the bottom, he was sooooo skinny. He's gained weight, but never got the attention he deserved. I took some pics today, but will take more tomorrow. I think he remembers our place as didn't get stressed as I expected. No stress marks at all. When we let him run around the living room, he noticed our girls and immediate black beard, so his hormones are working!

He had a bath this morning, had a big poop, no smell, so not worried about parasites.

So here are a few pics, he's a yellow & dark gray, light gray colour.

Under the communal power sun in the living room:

Discovering there are girls in those tanks up above, he has a great black beard for such a skinny boy:

On the couch, he's got a pretty diamond pattern on his back:

Hope you enjoy

Cierra dug for 4 hours?! Sounds just like MoMo.
Thank goodness that she finally laid those eggs. I'm sure she's relieved to rid of 22 eggs.

She was, Gina, and glad to have me with her, even though I was beside her while she was digging. I never figured I had the timing wrong, though...I was thinking she'd want a nap, nope, she's been glass dancing, so I put Nathaniel back in his tank and she's been running around the living room for the last 1/2 hr LOL Right now she's sitting on my foot. She's just too funny, starting to call her Wonder Dragon LOL. Castiel and Nathaniel are going nuts again because she's showing herself off to them, little hussy LOL. She just jumped up on the ramp, I think she's enjoying being so slim again, but I'm hoping she'll also start eating soon.

When MoMo was done with her eggs (and I know she likes to dig outside now), was she really tired? I can't get over how much energy Cierra has!

Wow, 4 hrs of digging and she wanted to lay them in the bath water with you holding her. Yes, now you are a dragon midwife. :D That sure is a LOT of eggs at one time. How on earth can she be running around after all that, UNBELIEVABLE! You'd think she'd be exhausted! If she lost 100 grams, I wonder how much all those eggs actually weighed. So good that she drank some watered bee pollen, that will help her out as well as the calcium.

Must be funny watching her run around with the boys going nuts. :lol: Quite a side show. Hope she eats something tomorrow.

I have to get the laundry out of the dryers, but when I get back I've got some great pictures. She standing at the top of the ramp, looking like the Queen she is :D I have no idea where all this energy is coming from, she's been up since 6a and not even looking tired, just alert and running around, taking breaks on top of the ramp, like that. I'm just glad I was home for her today.

It sure worked out well with you being home today and her picking today to get rid of those eggs. What would she have done without her midwife. :wink:

Hopefully she will give in & tire out soon. You supppose the bee pollen wound her up?

So got some pics over the last couple of days.

Sunday Imp decided he wanted to check out the computer. I told him this wasn't the way but he insisted:

Imp on one of Rubio's fleece blanket. He looks so grown up in this picture, not like a baby anymore.

Cierra before laying eggs, she hides eggs well when she's lying down.

Nathaniel is my long slim boy, no matter how much he eats, he still looks slim when he's stretched out. Still my smallest dragon, even smaller than Cierra!

Pictures of Cierra after she laid 22 eggs, she doesn't look tired and here it is 6p and she's still running around the living room. The boys are fast asleep, though :mrgreen:

Earlier this afternoon, after Cierra laid her eggs and was running around the living room, Castiel was showing her what he had that she would love :lol:

He's a crazy dragon when she's running around the living room, she wears him out :mrgreen:

Wow, look at those pictures, great shots. HAVE to comment on Castiel showing her just what he had to offer first. OH MY, he sure is quite the stud muffin. :lol: Did she look at him when he struck that pose?!?

He's like that every day and she stares and then turns her back on him, drives him even more crazy. Today she wore him out. I caught her low bobbing to Nathaniel, she's such a hussy LOL

OMGAWD at Castiel! That is too funny! :)

I would run around like a psycho too if I just laid all of those eggs - she must feel so relieved! Can you imagine that - like carrying around some bowling balls for a long time and then having contractions to get rid of them . . . it must be like heaven to be done with it!

I think so, she sure enjoyed her running around and actually ate a super worm. Hopefully tomorrow she has a bigger appetite, I'll know when I get home, have to work for the next 3 days.

Isn't he hilarious? he gets between the glass & his basking log and shows himself off :lol:

I am still laughing out loud at Castiel. Every time I get depressed, I am going to think of that. He should have some gold chains and chest hair showing :) :) :)

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
