NEW BPs... And Stowaway

[cschneider]

So i pick up 2 new BPs at the columbus show today. i'm so excited i finally got my bumble bee, and they threw in a pastel for pretty much free. I also had a supprise when i got home. I opened the bag and out jumped this lizard! I have no idea what it is and i have no interest in keeping a lizard. I would take it back but the show was a 2 hour drive. I was thinking of taking it up to a pet store to see if they want it. Does anyone know what this is...

Bumble Bee


Pastel


What is this guy???




If anyone knows what this lizard is, please let me know. Also i will try to get better pics of the BPs up soon when they aren't so stressed from the car ride home. I feel like it's christmas!

It's a Frilled Dragon.

Nice ball pythons, and, yes, that is a frilled dragon.

Just so you know the Frilled Dragon is worth about $150-$200 CDN.
I would try to trade it to the petstore for credit on feeders or reptiles suplies.

That's hilarious! I'd probably jumped halfway across the room if something jumped out at me. Nice pickups though, how much does the bee weigh?

nice new snakes and the lizard looks badass! keep it!

Nice looking snakes. You might not have planned on a lizard, but it looks like that little dragon picked you...

You should try and find it a good home, I'm not sure what your pet stores are like, but it might die. Maybe try putting it on here in the classified section?

i'd say keep it. you might not want it now, but that thing looks like it would be a bad little pet

I don't really want a lizard but my husband is falling for him lol. I think we need to do some major research on these guys. I also picked up a snake rack at the show so the dragon is in my old snake tank. I have a heat lamp and heat pad on that tank so i think he will be ok for now. We are going to run to the pet store to get some stuff for him. I called the pet store and they said they would take him, but wouldn't give me any money or credit for him because they don't know if it's healthy or not. Maybe it was meant to be... I have my snakes and now my husband has a dragon lol.

I don't have a scale, but i'm guessing the bee is about a year old. He is 2 times the thickness of the pastel and the pastel might be 4 months. I'm not good in guessing grams though. I will probably get a scale soon.

So does anyone here have a frilled dragon? Are they difficult to care for compared to BPs?

I'm so excited about my new BPs. i just can't get over it!
