Tid-Bits of Info

Charlotte, NC, United States
I'm a college student. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, though i prefer some to others. Recently I've been obsessed with Herps as a whole, not surprising actually. I blame Charizard, my big fat orange spiky monster.

Been busy

Hay guys, sorry i havent posted (like you seem to care).

But i've had an eventful few weeks, dunno if i mentioned it but i'm dating (yay). But everythings good, were cleaning up his place since it was pretty messy (understandable considering the circumstances that i'm not going to talk about but it needs cleanings). That's what hasnt kept me from posting though, a few new additions has.



:D i have a Bearded Dragon, google them, their badass (note the ones in the picture are fancy dragons, bred for those colors). I'd been contemplating getting one, since i technically do have enough money. But decided that i should wait till i have a job, cause i know little guys eat a shit ton. However, Ace felt bad because i didn't have the cash to buy one and buy all the necessary stuff for one, so he secretly contacted  Carolina Dragons. I have deemed him an awesome boyfriend for doing so, because he didnt have to.

I named my beardi Charizard, specificly ash's charizard from pokemon. His coloring reminds me of one as does his attitude towards veggies, he doesn't want to eat any but we know he likes them. Though crickets are his main diet. He's such a sweet lizard, very friendly and easy to handle. He does like to run after fast moving objects though, whether there crickets or not he'll skitter almost off the couch if were not paying enough attention to him.

Charizard came from Carolina Dragons, based in Charlotte. His particular coloring is I think called Sunkist. Or that's what his mother's name was, I know his dad is fucking huge with a blood red face. I wanted one from Carolina Dragons not necessarily for the awesome colors (they are nice, but I'd be happy with any beardi) but for healthy genes. The Petsmart's near us had good looking dragons but I wanted to make sure, and I recently heard that bearded dragons are actually protected in the wild so I didn't want a dragon from the wild.

We also have a brown basilisk named Ivan the Terrible. It suits him so much, you have no idea. He's a mean fucking lizard. Ace put a leash on him and took to petsmart the other day though, he now is missing a chunk out of his thumb. Ivan didn't mind so much the second time though. We think he may just get cranky when he's hungry. 



Thats an Ivan, he's not nearly as pretty though. Ivan is to our knowledge almost full grown, and were recently discovering he has been under fed and malnourished for some time. I'm tempted to contact the pet store he came from and let them know the proper diet for him in case they get another Basilisk.

We have also recently acquired a Chinese Water Dragon, he doesn't have a name yet. But he seems to be incredibly narcoleptic, he fell asleep on everything when he was brought home apparently.

Thats generaly what he looks like, though ours is prettier in my opinion. I'll let you guys know what his name is when we decide on one. Also! Ace is probably going to do a blog about all of our reptilian pets, and maybe his badass fish (he has them). I'll mention it when he gives me a link for the blog :).

But thats all for now guys.
