[QUOTE="Rocky2022, post: 2028252, member: 114919"] Going to the story with Rocky draws a lot of attention. Rocky puts me in a chokehold, they never see his face but [USER=88716]@Karrie[/USER] recommends natural sun so this is how I get him out. A 10 minute errand takes 30 minutes but it's been depressing lately. Many people ask questions and I constantly find myself telling people that they are not ready to get a dragon. - no they can't just play in grass - no they can't eat bugs outside -no they can't drink water like a dog - no, no, no I take so much time to educate but I truly hope that it's making a difference. I walk away wondering how many people buy animals (beardies PLUS more) that they aren't ready for. Please know that I had no idea what I was getting into with Rocky but I was and I am willing to put in the work. When I push further about how you can't leave them alone for days, their nose turns up. Kids tell me how their friends have one and "swing them by their tail"- I would tell them to call them on their phone so I can tell them to stop it immediately! It's just too much for me. I ran into a girl about 10 who knew sooooooooo much. It touched my heart. She took pictures with Rocky and everything! Her mother was petrified. But 3 stepa later, I run into someone else with zero knowledge. If you have the willing to learn, so be it but they think beardies are a toy! THEY ARE NOT TOYS- yes they look cool, yes they are different but they are a lot of work! They are unique- they live a long, healthy life if we are lucky and I obviously take this personal. I think I want to set up shop like a petting zoo let them get their feels then leave....okay we know that's too many hands on Rocky but you get what I am saying. Thanks for listening to my rant. By the way, Rocky had sleepies in his eye today?~ I thought it was shed. I got it out but that was new. (I didnt want to start a new post to tell you such an important fact):ROFLMAO: He closed his eye on me at least 40 times but I got it! [/QUOTE]
