First post, please bear with me: The number one question/concern right now is how do I accuire a dragon that is healthy from the start? Pet store, expo, adopt, ship in? Is there any way to guarantee it is free from, specificly adenovirus, but also other issues. Some pet stores have obviously weaker dragons but some look great. It’s tempting to buy from one that is clean (good practices) and healthy (looking) dragons. Obviously I can’t see the virus. Is this a problem with all pet store dragons? 100% of them? 5%? Is it a problem with all dragons no matter where they come from? Ok, I’ll start there. Thanks in advance!

Really isn't a guarantee sad to say, the best thing you can do is really spend your time watching them to see how they are acting, breathing, eating, moving..
I got all 3 of mine at Petco and they were all healthy.

Thank you. That’s promising. I’m glad you’ve had success.
