Here's a bin of Kevins, from Dragon's Den, baby Blood dragons. They were priced at $150-$200.

This was a big pile of colorful dragons! Bob covered all his animals with mesh so they could not easily be touched for their safety.

That was one thing I was amazed at..... a bunch of people letting people wander around holding dragons, then comming over to their table and holding some more and on and on and on..... I think I will have a bottle of germ x and a mesh cover if and when I decide to set up at a show.

I was talking to Kevin Brown (KWE) he was saying that one of his most colorful breeder females suddenly died after a show filled with different people touching her. With that many people, hold so many different animals, it is bound to happen.

If I was in that situation I would do the same thing with the antiseptic hand sanitizes. Never know what the people just touched. They could be carrying mites, parasites, God knows what else. I think the customers would appreciate that too. Shows them a level of care above and beyond what most are doing at the shows. Good practice too. I do it at home with my new arrivals. Yes, a little Obsessive compulsive, but safe, lol Do you think it's good to bring the adult breeders to the shows anyway? Seems like it could really be stressful for them. Think pictures of the parents would do? Sandfires dragons are so use to it they sit on that one spot the whole show. Mine would be wondering the show lookin for snacks,lol.

This is a young Tokay Gecko, who is my new "Loose Cricket Getter". He is let loose in the house and seems to be adapting fine.....time will tell! His fat little belly from catching all the stray crickets will tell the tale

Is your house safe for that gecko? Is it warm enough? I hear that in some Asian cities, Tokay's prowl the urban centers at night, hunting moths that are attracted by lamps. Hopefully your gecko will adapt well. He sure is nice looking.

Well, we hope so. This is a captive bred one, about 7 inches. It's staying in the dragons room for now, there are plenty of stray crickets there. The dragons are all enclosed so no worries. It certainly is warm in there, too. I read they can get 12-14 inches long....aagghh! It will certainly be on it's own with the run of the house by that time. Here in Florida, there should always be plenty for him to eat!
