Well it's been a while since I've been here. Time is getting harder to come by with age. lol

It seems there is only a small handful of people who were regulars last year, unless some of you had changed your log on names.
I scrolled down a little & I see not a lot has changed, other than the people. lol (those of you who have been here for a while know what I mean) )

Christy, How's Hollywood doing? Is Veronica still around?

Here is an update on BB (the import I got from Cheri)
He is at 18" and 381g. !!! I have to renew my Pethobbiest thing to post new pics but I'll do it soon.

Well, after we were sure all this winters flagellates where taken care of, we put Tyson (a snow x red from Dragons by Nature) with our Sandy (Zilla X Goldfrogy). With how much orange she produced last year, we can't wait to see her babies this year. Tyson is from a "red" line but he is one heck of a beautiful "orange" dragon. We just can't wait. She has laid two clutches. One was 17 eggs and the other was 15. The second clutch was just laid the other day. I don't know how many she will put out this year but for those who don't remember from last year, she put out 6 clutches. She did breed again after the fist clutch but no contact after that & had 5 more clutches. A total of 115 good eggs! Only time will tell for this years outcome.

I've seen a couple of Matt's babies this year,,, Way to go Matt! Welcome to the busy end. lol I hope you're having as much luck as I did last year. I know your ethics are way up there so I know you'll be one of the top this year. )

Well, enough rambling. I'll get my pics updated soon & share what we are up to.

Later All.

Hey Joel good to hear from ya!! Glad to hear you got things back in order there, and have some beauties on the way with that new cross.

Yes, my name changed from Mattman to Mystical-Dragons, but I'm here too stay, and still the same person LOL.

Getting ready for the sale of the second clutch to start, maybe a week and a half away from that now as they all are shedding and looking real nice too. The first clutch is all but gone except for the two males I have left that are going to be mine if no takers at the sale price I have them at now LOL. Other then that things went great, and I'm very pleased with how the first year went. I'm especially pleased with the strength and the quality of the offspring I had from pairing Foster X Candy. They gave me a great year, I just worked at getting them into great homes!! Good to hear from you again, and how about sticking around for a while now LOL

I'm glad things are working out so well for ya.
I should be poking my head in more often now. Things are finally moving forward. lol I honestly hope Sandy doesn't lay as much as she did last year. Next year I'll be in deep though. My Gem will be paired up with BB (the import) And Cuddles (the orange German I got from Dachiu's ) will be paired up with Cpt. Hook. He's not famous yet. lol He is a male I had last year from Sandy who was the target of a couple nippers. He is missing a front foot, several toes on his rear foot, and lost a little of his tail. Anyway, he had stayed small for the longest (I"m sure because of self-esteem) anyway, he didn't have much color or anything so I decided to keep him as a "Pet". He has turned into my buddy. Him & BB are my closest pal's. lol Now he is HUGE & Pretty!!!!! So I had decided to get rid of "Cokeman". He is who I had planed on breeding to cuddles but Hook can do the job & has the same genes so there is no reason to hold on to Coke.
Phewww that was a long breath. lol
I'll get some pics of Hook soon.

These are all old pic but these are the dragons I mentioned above.
Here is a pic of Cuddles (old pic)

This is Gem

Her mate BB the import

& this is Cokeman

I'll try to get some updated pics & renew my pethobbiest account soon. lol
Talk to you later.

Does Gem in the picture 2nd from the top really look like that? By "really look like that" i mean does Gem look liek that all the time (the pink torso) or was she/he shedding?

Geeze, you must have ESP, I was just thinkin about you the other yesterday. Glad all the cooties are out of your way..
Ozzy is doing great, eats like a cow. He had to take a backseat to my new Grandson but he's handling it well. lol
I haven't weighed him in a while, I'll have to do that soon. He's a fat lil booger and pretty spoiled. I have to hand feed him a few greens or he won't even start to eat out of the bowl. It's a ritual we go through daily. Silly Boy!!
Sure is good to see you on here.

I just weighed Gem (who was Hollywood's twin) Not literally. Anyway, she is at 342g. She is a little pudge ball too. lol.

Hey!! speaking of which,,, she out of everyone is the most in love with your hammocks. lol The others use them too but she is on it more than not. I'll get a pic soon.

I'm glad you are doing well & it's good to see you are still here. I should be around for a while now that things are rolling again.

Talk to you soon.
