I took in a bearded about 3 months ago who was in very bad shape. She was very under weight/sized. 90 grams and 14" at nearly a year of age! she had a bad cut near her right eye that was starting to get infected, and she was missing her front left leg! As you can see by the pic she looked awful!

That rocks! She is gorgeous! You did a great job with her. Did you know that Zilla was a rescued dragon? Just goes to show you how important good husbandry is to color and health. Awesome job! Can't beleive people would do that to an animal..... any animal.

Later,

You have done a great job with her. I have rescued 3 beardies and I still can't believe what people will let happen to them.

yeah thats an awsome dragon you got there...do you know what happened to its leg?

from what i was told is it was bit off by another dragon. Im not sure how early in life it happened but it was healed when i got her.

I'm sure she is extremely grateful for all the great care you have given her. She looks a thousand times better now!

that you don't want to keep her! We will continue to get her fattened up and find a good loving home for her. Remember the little male Beardie that we took in with the bunch of 14 last March that had the tail amputation done? He's still with us and is a sweet handome man dragon now. Here are before and after pics of Mr. Stubbs.

Wow, he looks great! What a nice lookin guy now. I remember talking to you guys about the 14 beardeds at one of the taylor shows, infact i might have seen him or some of his siblings. I couldnt believe those poor lil guys. You looking for a new home?

anyways

I would love to keep her, but i believe ive done all i can for her. I feel i kinda hit a brick wall. She doesnt seem to trust people to well, and i cant blame her! She is very very shy and doesnt come out of hiding too much. She doesnt seem to eat a whole lot. I just think you guys are more experienced with dragons with her circumstances. I believe she can flurish in your care. I took her in wanting the best for her. Thats all im looking for.

BTW
Just thought id share a pic of sissy. Shes really doing great, and man has she gotten fat! LOL. She has to be the most lovable bearded i have. You should see how she swims, my girlfriend loves it. Its a riot. Heres a recent pic, she wasnt too happy being woke up for the pic so its not the best.
