Water Dragons are, imho, an under-appreciated lizard. You've gotta love the richness of their colors.....and that's a gorgeous hoggie, as well!
Kudos!!

Hi Dale!
I would agree (on both counts ) I just love the Water Dragon personality and rather regal disposition. And he eats! Whoa....
The wee hoggie refused his first meal with me. I'm really frustrated because he's SO small. I'll go through the gammit of poor feeding response, but I was hoping to avoid that with this guy. The breeder said that that the hoggie only 'occasionally' refused. I'm crossing my fingers .... any suggestions?
Happy Birthday!!! As far as the hognose goes I have a western (no albino) and am having trouble feeding it to she ways in at 8 grams. I've heared scenting it with a frog will get it to eat as that is what they mostly eat in the wild. However I'm told to get a captive breed frog so as not pass any parasites onto the snake. Where I live though there are no pet stores so I'm going to have to try and find somebody online who can sell me a frog so I can get this little one to eat. Congrats on all your birthday gift I really love that Water dragon it's beautiful.

Hiya Heather,
Do you know what king of frog I need...? Blech. I just put an ASF pinky in...lets see if that looks more palatable to him.
