Dragon tales

Ok last Friday on my way home I stopped at a local reptile shop and bought a juvinile bearded dragon for $50 this one is about maybe 6" in length. For those who don't know... Bearded dragons are kinda like horned lizzard or horny toads but will grow over a foot long and can live to be about 12 to 15 years long (we will see) and are native to Australia. So I have been feeding it crickets, and veggies which he likes, yesterday I bought him some wax worms which look like giant maggots, which supposedly they eat like candy, though this one don't appear to like them, five were missing when I got home today.
On the way home I stopped at said pet store and picked up more crickets, and they gave me a newly hatched Beardie that only had one eye, so I named it wierdo. I thought wow this is really cool. Came home cleaned the dragons cage, put wierdo in the cage and then the other dragon.
Now wierdo is almost as long as my pinky finger and is a much darker dragon than the other which is yellowish in color.
As soon as this bigger dragon saw wierdo he went right up to it and ate it in less time than it took you to read this sentence.

~DoH!!~
Good read~
:)
For real's though. I really dig those little dragons.they seem to have a curious bone about them..neat..

What's funny is when he's hunting crickets and the cricket decides to stay still he'll raise one of his arms like he's waving to get the cricket to move.

Beardies where one of my favorite reptiles when we kept ours. We had 2 of them, 3 pythons, 2 corn snakes and lots and lots of Leopard Gecko's. My Beardies used to love getting a weekly treat of Kiwi Fruit and a couple baby mice. About once a month we would buy those big worms (forgot what they are called.) they are big, blue or green and are normally found in gardens a lot. My beardies would go nutso over those for some reason.

I'd love to see pics of yours some time.
