We just got our first Bearded Dragon this weekend for my 5 year olds first pet. We researched a lot. As kids we always had pet rats. A combination of my development of allergies to anything with fur except dogs and the dogs desire to kill rodents made that impossible. A co worker adopted a friends Bearded Dragon and what she was describing just clicked.
We adopted Rosie from a local, independent pet store. They had 3 juvenile Beardies but they felt bad for 1 of them. She was a sweet, gentle thing that had been at the store for a while. My 5 year old said if its a girl her name is Rosie. If its a boy his name is Robbie.
She is a sweet thing but a little pampered. The first time my son fed her she looked at the food across her terrarium, looked at us, then opened her mouth. Apparently walking a foot to get food is too much work and she'd rather be hand fed from her basking spot.
So far we're doing alright. I just wanted to introduce myself and be involved before I had issues. I'll probably have some since I'm new to Beardies. I've had Ball Pythons before but it's really not the same.
