I just am not into the nicey nice when someone is advised already and they ignore it or do things and THEN ask if it was okay, you would think since they are on a care forum, they would ask first, obviously they know where to go for it! It does not make much sense to me.
I've seen to many disaster from lack of quarantine and young female dragons put in with males. In almost all situations, the male was pre existing in the household and the female was bought "for him".
It seems like there is no concern for the female since there is no bond established with her, and she is the one that takes all the damage of the situation..... I think its sad I hate to see young females put through this, but it happens so often.
How many times have all of us on here seen someone post like that, then post about eggs and babies.... then a female that is not recovering, dies, babies dying, etc? and the whole time others advising then not to do what they are doing and they just ignore it.
Learn about them first then take all the precautions to make sure they thrive, before we leap to the next step or something that can not be undone. That involves a lot of planning and pre-care. Its easy to let them down and it so avoidable!
These are living creatures and ones that stress or husbandry can make a difference not only in their survival but the condition of the future offspring too.
All the advise in the world does no good if others are not listenting to it and have their own agenda in mind and not that of the animals. When a post changes several times over the thread, makes you wonder what their real story is. ----- www.reptilerooms.com
