We want to thank everyone on the forum for their help and advise over the past year. Many experts will tell yo that beardies don't bond with their masters and pretty much don't care who is on the other side of the food that they get. I can tell you differently. When Drago was 5 years old, I took him to a Florida beach (a cooler area), placed him on the sand and stepped back about 10 or so feet. Within a minute, he turned looked up at me, ran back to me and attempted to crawl up my leg. It truly amazed the people there that day.

Drago and I spent a lot of time together, much like a pirate captain and his trusty parrot perched on his shoulder. Whenever I would go away for a week or so at a time for work, my wife and kids would tell me that Drago appeared to be somewhat depressed and much less active then when I was home. We always kept him in a very large glass tank right in the center of our home office where we spent most of our time so he always was looking at us and plenty entertained. Whenever I would return from my work trips, you would notice that Drago would get extra alert and start to crawl toward the glass where ever I was standing.

Yes, we had a very special relationship as did my wife and children with Drago. People often ask how did we manage to keep a beardie going for 13 years, I think it is fair to say with a lot of care and attention all living creatures will get the most out of their lives.

Drago is now in the great desert in the sky basking in the open daylight as the sun beams down on his mighty brow. This picture posted here was taken when he was 12 years and 8 months old and was the last photograph taken.

Blessings to all of you and your beardies and may the spirit of the Dragon keep you safe.

Ed, Kelly, Destini and Dustin

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. 😔
