The Bearded Dragon may have a fierce name but it is, in reality, one of the gentlest reptiles. Considered the "puppy dog" of the reptile world, they can hang out for hours calmly on their owners shoulders. I spent many hours capturing this one in paint. I carefully rendered each detail and was painstakingly bent over this one till my eyes bled. Well, not literally:) But the rock alone had me trying to massage the carpal tunnel out of my hand! This girl, is actually quite the sweet heart. If she trusts you, she will fall asleep in your arms. Named Pebbles, she's a beardie that had a rough start. She came from an abusive home and was given up. But, luckily, she was rescued and rehabilitated and is now very happy! Their staple diet is live crickets. Some can be fed freeze-dried crickets, but this girl won't go for it. It's either live, or never mind! They also eat vegetables, and a bit of fruit, but this one is not a big fan. They love to bask in the sun, so heat lamps are a must!
