He's doing great! Last night when he was sitting on my lap watching TV Ojay started to head bob at him from his enclosure. I guess he could see Socket from way across the room. Geez those guys have great vision! Instead of waving back like Socket normally does to ANY dragon, he head bobbed back and got all black! That's the first aggressive behavior towards another dragon that he's ever done. It was hilarious! After about 2 minutes of Socket head bobbing back and Ojay, Ojay stopped and hid under his cave. I guess Socket showed him. Even though Ojay is 550 grams and Socket is light weight weighing in at less than 90 grams! It cracked me up!

Thanks for asking about Socket. He's always been such a trooper. Although his growth has been slower than any other dragon I have raised, I think he will turn out to be a normal dragon - with one eye.

I'll get some updated photos on the site soon. I promise. Take care.

Yea Socket, you show em. I always like seeing the underdogs get the glory.

Glad to hear he is doing well.
