Baby Dragons

I know a few others on the forum have Bearded Dragons so I thought this may interest you.

About three months ago we adopted a new Dragon. We nick named her Pothole after she started digging them in her enclosure, at the time we had no idea that she was ready to lay eggs.
She laid 12 eggs that we had to incubate for two months before they hatched. 11 of the eggs hatched around the 22nd of November, unfortunately one little guy died after hatching which left us with 10 healthy little Dragons.

I've attached a few photos of Pothole laying her eggs and the little guys.
And a couple of photos of our first Bearded Dragon Bob he is now fully grown and such a clown he loves his bath and our dog Chino.

Mick.

Thanks Mick, I really enjoyed seeing those pics. I think these critters are so cute!
When I go to Bunnings, there is one big one there and he rounds me up just about everytime at the garden section (comes right up to me and scares the jeebies out of me). I now think he is stalking me I'm always curious as to their intelligence/behaviour/personality. Would you mind sharing some "moments"?

I think he was very happy after his bath.
It's funny they are all shedding skin at the moment and very hungry. They are quite a sight with skin hanging off everywhere.
Suzy they are very slow in the morning just like me and they all have different personalities. Pothole is my little girl, big Bob is the boss and Fred is a teenager you can never win with him.

You can come over and see the family anytime Warren just give me a bell.

And just for you Cat lovers here is my Ginger ninja, she is very dog like comes when called and jumps up in the back of me ute every afternoon when I come home from work for a pat. I won't tel you here name as it may breach the rule here.
