Awesome!!!

I have seen some shots of barbata in the wild with some dark blue hues. Very cool!

Is this the one that was for sale in the classifieds?

I wish I jumped on it then. Congrats!

Look forward to seeing what this guy produces.

Congrats!

This dragon was posted on the classifieds. I was lucky enough to be the first to call on it. I thought it was covered in calci-sand or in shed. After studying the photos I decited to risk it $270 total. I think my gamble will pay off. I will have to wait for the first shed to be sure this is what it appears.

this article has me wondering since this my blue also came from a zoo.

I hope it's not calci sand or some fan of Avatar's doing by painting him blue.

Until he sheds no one knows.

Hope he is what he seems, can't wait to see what comes from this guy.

Cheers.

Here's a couple of Trapelus Savignii's I got in a year or so ago. The first one is after a shed and the other 2 are after I had bathed them when they first came in.

This is why I would never consider using calci sand. Just imagine what color their lungs are if the dust can color their scales so well.

There is no blue on the belly of my bearded dragon so I doubt it is calci sand. Did the blue wash off at all?

BDlvr Oct 23, 2010 02:25 PM

Maybe a little but it definitely stained them. My post was more of a "don't buy calci sand theme" not an I doubt yours are truly blue. Time will tell. I'm not sure that the calci sand color would be as dramatic if their natural color wan't so light. Every thing in their enclosure was blue. It wouldn't come off the wood so I had to throw it away.

I think you'd be able to tell if it was sand color. The Trapelus Savignii's are very small (
