They are gorgeous. I got sucked down a YouTube hole once and they covered every color mutation imaginable!!! I retained nothing tho :wacky:
It's so hard! Plus in reptile genetics they start using words that make no sense when you combine them. Like a ball python that's orange dream Creamsicle het xanthic pineapple 66% het purple wonder mocha.

That's a real thing.

No leatherback that I can tell, but maybe a couple that are het for it? Hard to say, I'm WAY better versed in snake genetics hahaha :roflmao: I can't even properly ID a normal to be honest!

I kind of wonder if I should start their own thread. Their whole situation has been a mess, and could be getting messier, health-wise.
I'm in!
One more distraction from :marievacuums::laundry::mariecleans::mop::scrubfloors2::sweep::dishes:
Plus very interesting,
love their eyes that first one eyes cool !

But I think the first pictures one is my favorite! The eyes and the spikes king ghidora ( can't spell (

I was trying to see if volcano in other languages would make a cool name for red

They're beautiful! I'd like to get a 'hands off' pet once we have a permanent home

They actually don’t really have to be very hands off. If you’re looking for a definitely hands off pet, I would say a tarantula. Bearded dragons actually don’t mind handling, and can even get to a point where they seem to enjoy it (some studies suggest they are more emotionally intelligent than we ever thought, and do enjoy some amount of human interaction!). Reptiles are way cooler than people think :D

Back to reptiles being misunderstood. Crocodiles and alligators raise their offspring! It is pretty amazing. I would never want to get in between a muma and her babies. She will do anything for those chirping little mini crocs.

I was on a night kayak paddle with a friend..heard baby alligators start calling on the shore weeds to my left, then a big cough ( threat call) st my right looked head lamp picked up the eyes of momma ! I was between her and babies! I got out of there so fast . I haven't ever gone night kayaking again

It’s been a long time & many new morphs on the market since I kept track of breaded dragon genetics :cautious: The one does look like a possible leatherback with the absence of spikes on the back.

Bearded not breaded obviously I should be asleep at 2am instead of playing on the internet :lol: I can see if we have extra dubia in the colony if you still need feeders. We don’t feed out of it as much since I reduced the tarantula numbers & my mother reduced her mantis numbers.

I ordered some dubia, but I'm not sure when they'll get here - they seem to be stuck in transit

This dude is making me CRAZY.

I have named him Digger. Because he is constantly digging at the walls of his tub trying to get out. I’m pretty sure he wants to eat one of the birds.

(Pretty sure it'll be Tteok, who has the self preservation skills of a walnut)

Can they have a little enrichment in their tubs? Something to climb or hide

Ohhh Isadora, telling the bearded dragons to step up. That’s so nice of you to foster these guys. ❤

eventually, yes, but right now due to some circumstances that I’m still working on I need to be able to see every piece of the enclosure that they might go to the bathroom in.
