The Bearded dragon lived at my mother's house. I would come over several times a week to clean the cage, feed, and handle him. Whenever I was not there, my mother was in charge of feeding him. She fed him about 70% of the time. She decided the reptile carpet he was on didn't look nice so she switched him to a crushed walnut shell without my permission and he ended up swallowing some. He got impacted and after 2 weeks of vet visits, intensive care on my part (hand feeding him and watering him) he died. I have never forgiven her for that and she has never apologized. My fiance and I both want a bearded dragon but we are not sure if we want to buy from a petstore, online breeder, or at a reptile show.

The leopard gecko I had for a while but before I moved into my own place I decided I wanted to focus on my ball pythons and so I sold her. I plan on getting another leopard gecko in the future. I miss her a lot.
