I brought home this Mountain Horned Dragon from Petco. It was a spur the of moment decision. Never the best idea, I know. I'm not sure exactly what kind she is. All it said by the enclosure was Mountain Horned Lizard.

I've got her in a temporary set up while I build her new home. I really would like it if someone could identify what kind she is.

Also, she seems pretty active and for the most part has a healthy appetite. When I first brought her home, she wouldn't eat anything I offered her... Until I stuck a big red worm in there and she attacked it like a little t-rex... That is all she will eat lol.

She's still pretty small. Nose to vent I'd say she's about 4 inches.

FYI I'm not a complete novice, but my experience in reptiles only includes anoles. lol. Help identifying her would be appreciated
