Spike: 1 YEAR OLD!!!!!!!

Okay, I tried and completely failed to keep up with a thread on spike once before but im gonna try again. Spike is leucistic and we got him from carolina designer dragons. His dad is morpheus and his mom is cleopatra. He seems to be impregnable to stress. He loves to travel, he loves people and he loves to sleep in my lap . He will turn 4 months old on july 4th. He is huge for his age at 12 inches . He has allowed me to hold him from day 1. I bought him at the raliegh reptile show this april.

Heslept for an hour and a half on my lap while i watched tv last night. Hes sooooooo cute when he sleeps :lol: lol

Leucistic dragons are clear nailed with little or no color including pigment in the striping. Some of my leucistics look a bit yellow when young but eventually they white out. The yellow is especially pronounced with the camera flash while taking pictures.

I was out of town over the weekend (which is why i didnt post anything). Spike was taken care of by our neighbor and hes just as happy as ever. hes also shedding again.

Aww, what an adorable lil' guy :love5: Keep up the good work and good luck with your baby!

Hes slept on me and ridden me around since day one. Anyone know about what age he should be when he slows down on crickets? Just wondering........

How can anyone afford to keep seven or 8 beardies? One beardie is enough of a handful! :shock:

:lol: I know! I would love to, but where does the time and money come from? Two's a handful for me right now.

 

[Spiketheleucistic]

Ill never convince my mom to let me have 2. I was lucky to get one

 

[SamusTheDragon]

Lol I bought the second on a whim. My dad was happy, but he dealed fairly well =P :lol:

My dog scared him to death today. My dog toby sniffed him and spike went nuts! He bearded out, reared up, and stuck out his tounge at toby. Toby just sniffed and looked away. it was hilarious lol

Spike looks a LOT like Tiki! She's rather pale in colour as well. I'm so happy you have a snuggly dragon! Tiki could nap on me for hours (well, when it's closer tonight). If it's day time she may sit and (yes, actually) watch a movie for twenty minutes. I think she likes action movies more - a lot more things on TV.

Spike dosent watch, he just crawls around between me and the couch and sleeps

 

[Spiketheleucistic]

He's shedding and irrittable. he actually bearded out at me today. not sure what the deal is? :study:
