Meet Doobie :)

:banana::banana::banana: I'm so thrilled right now :D:D:D

I have been wanting a beardie for a looooooong time! And today I finally got one :P He is so chill! I totally dig him :D
I picked him up at the Wheaton reptile show this afternoon - it was love at first sight :rolleyes: Haha, I went out there for f/t mice and came home with Doobie and no mice :O the guy I buy them from was sold out by the time I strolled in. It's a good thing I have enough in the freezer to make it until the next show ;)

OK enough babbling....Here's Doobie :P

thanks ;) I know I wanted to be there earlier but coaching cheer is time consuming and thats as early as I could manage. Im gonna try to hit it up earlier for the next one at the end of the month. By the way...It was nice seeing you there ;)

That beardie is awesome!! I wish I could get one, but I don't have the time during the week to take care of one...so that's why I'm helping a friend get setup for one :D

He looks awesome, Lena! Congrats:) I had a pair of them many years ago, and they are really cool. They eat a ton!

Thanks Pat! He is fitting right in. I finally brought a critter home that the other half approves of. All I heard was "thank god it's not another worm" :8::8:

I pay just under $3 for 50 superworms and under $2 for wax worms I've been having a hard time locating silk worms on a regular basis. I can order them online I just havent yet Im sure they would all be cheaper if I ordered them in bulk online.

Where do you get your superworms from? We order from mulberryfarms.com and we always thought they were pretty cheap, but they charge 6.99 for 50 superworms.

We also DESPISE crickets, they STINK, they make noise, and they are and they're escape artisit! we are 110% ok with spending the extra $$$ to make Phoenix worms our BD's staple food (no need to "calcium dust" either) But we also like to mix in a few mealworms/wax worms/and superworms too (of course fruit and veggies too) but it's so hard to get mealworms these days, and we cannot order wax worms from mulberryfarms.com, so we order superworms. We would love to pay $3 instead of $7!!!

By the way we <3 the name too!!!

Lena, did you find a fountain of youth?

You look so young in that picture. :D

Saweeeeeeeeeeet beardie! He's a P-I-M-P! Throw'm up for Doobie!! WOOT WOOT! :P :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:
