Dragonology

The boys have been saving, and dreaming and planning for almost a year for just this moment. So when I was at the pet store yesterday and they had exactly what they had been looking for, we jumped on it.

At 9 o'clock this morning we went back and brought Saphira home . She is a beautiful 3-year-old bearded dragon. We chose the name Saphira after the name of the dragon from Eragon. She is about 18" long and is quite the stealthy hunter. Those crickets don't stand a chance! (she can eat 12 a day)
Bearded dragons are native to Australia, but I think she'll like it here anyway. She already likes to climb around on the boys and perks up whenever we walk in the room. She is a pretty cool pet!
