No a Micro Dragon isn't another type of beardie. Bender is the product of the mother being treated for coccidia while gravid. The vet couldn't tell me if it would affect her eggs so I only kept one egg to incubate which is Bender. He is just days short of being 5 months old he's only 10 inches long an only 30 grams. Ms. Tiggs' babies have always been exceptionally large yellow babies so I think I would say yes it does affect the eggs. He is very healthy just Micro. Though he has grown more in the last month than in the months prior. He was much smaller and weaker coming out of the egg almost like a premie baby. Although he was 3 weeks late coming out of the egg an only did so when I cut his egg open to examine. I figured the baby had died, but when I cut the egg he twitched. When he finally emerged he was very thin and weak. His little arms were transparent.Rottipet":7a70d said:Bender is sadly an adorable Beardie. Asking a stupid, pointless question, is a 'micro' another type of Beardie? My ignorance may really be showing, but as long as the members never meet me face to face I can deal with it.I do love this thread, thanks OP :wave:

Sadly he was kind of an experiment baby, but I love him just as much as any of my other beardies never the less. He is quite a big character for such a little beardie.![]()
