"You did made several expensive mistakes, not just the ones the other poster stated and not just for yourself. Think about the female and your boyfriends dragons.

You just introduced a non quarantined dragon to your established dragon... hope they both are clear of common parasite, worms and other problems. Normal safe quarantine periods are 90 days.

Although the female is free and you have not established a bond with her, so I understand there is not the concern there for her yet, don't you think it would have been better to give her some adjustment time with you prior to adding more stress factors on her? Such as a normal male repsonse and attempts to bred, plus possibly making her gavid when you know knowing about her health (remember, you are the one that said the prior owner did not have time for her) and its the end of season when normal healthy dragons of breeding quality are going down for brumation?

Hope if she is gravid (it can take less that 10 secs) that you are able to meet her special needs she will have through a winter and being gravid.

Also, you might want to think about finding the answers to questions of contact between two dragons, prior to the act of it."


Can any of you people actually read?

1) We accuired the animal from her next door neighbor. It is free of parasites and is healthy. She stoped eating for a week or 2 but has made a complete turn around since we have had her in our care. She is eating helathy and often, no signs of diseas at all.

2) I care for the female just as much as i do for my dragon. Why would you assume i have not? She has been at my girlfriends house for 2 weeks prior to her being brought to my house. She is extremely laid back and warms up to people very easily.

3) As i stated before, they did NOT mate. If you dont want to belive me then thats fine. But you are completely wrong.

4) The question ih have matters not at all if i asked before or after i required the dragons. They were seperated as soon as it happend. so regardless if i knew they were attempting to breed before i got them, i still took them apart ASAP.

5) You still havent answerd the question. All we want to know is if it was breeding behavior or if he was simply being aggressive.

Why is it so hard for people to read and just answer the simple question?
