Beardie. 8D

The second I have a job, Im finally getting a bearded dragon. I wanted a ball python desperately so I could chill with a snake on my neck like a total badass, but my granny isn't going for it. Curses. But lizards are just as cool and he can chill out on my shoulder so it isn't all bad! Mostly this is just a gush post. I just have to tell everyone how awesome and exciting this will be. I have been spending much time (that should be spent sleeping, i.e. now, hello 3am) considering silly, elaborate, and slightly menacing names. So far I think Karkat Gamzeezle Saint Chuckles McScurry, Lord of the Crickets and Harbinger of Adorabloodthirstiness is my favorite. Props to anyone who gets it, it's an obsession I admit. I wanted to include "herp" in the name as homage to the study and the Internet, but I can't make it work. So I went with different homages.

LIZARD. AHHHH. SO EXCITED. GAH.

Yay! That's awesome they make great pets. They make leashes for them and you can literally take them anywhere secretly or knowingly. My friend used to drive around and hers would hang out on her dash board and go to the beach with her. Another pair I knew walked their bearded dragon. Lol. They are cool! Good luck and haha those are funny and interesting names :)

It's all one name! But Karkat for short. Yeah, I know they make leashes! I was like shocked when I found out, but I wouldn't use one for a while since I'll be getting a baby. They're so tiny. I'm really excited lol. When he's bigger I'm not sure how I'll hide a 16-24" worth of dragon, but I will take him outside to chill with me so he can soak up some of that natural sunlight. It stays nice and warm here too so he should feel right at home.



Gaaah, job, why can't I have you noooow. Hopefully applying to like everywhere that said "now hiring!" will pay off.

I actually just got called for an interview at PetSmart so here's hoping I land it. Would be awesome if I got it. I could stare longingly at beardies while working up to buy one haha. That is pretty good though, 8.40 is over a dollar more than minimum wage here. It's 7.25 in TX.

Aww shucks, Iana, thank you! x) I appreciate it.

That's awesome! My first job was min wage plus commission. Pet smart should be fun Rai I worked at Pet Land so I had to sell puppies and stuff I just loved it! So much fun. What a wonderful place. But now that I've moved to a new job, coaching a swim team life guarding and being a summer camp counselor my pay is 13.05, which is much easier than commission. But Iana you got an awesome job for your first one! Especially the type, you can move up quick in that industry if you go to school for it! :)

Yeah I'm pretty excited. I read up on possible interview questions and what to wear, so I think I ought to be okay. I'll just put my awkwardness to the side and tell myself how awesome I am, then I'll nail it. I love animals though and I know a lot about most of the kinds they have aside from the fish and birds, so hopefully I'll be able to show them I have what it takes. :P

I also shortened his name, by the way. It's just Gamzee Vantas McScurry, Harbinger of Adorabloodthirstiness now. :D Unless it's a girl. I haven't thought of girl names.

That's awesome :) I'm sure you'll do fine. It's the only time that you need to be a huge show off, then you'll get it. Anything and everything possible to throwing their face to make you sound awesome will be awesome. If you ever have questions about animals or wanna know some interesting facts I used to instruct animal shows for elementary schools back when I worked at the pet store. Plus while you work there you learn a lot a lot a lot! :) what color of a beardie are you going to get? We always got orange in.. But I have seen a red one before, and a tangerine. There are many many colors! :D and if you decide against a beardie there is a vegetarian lizard that is less stinky and just as friendly called a uromastix I believe I might have spelt that wrong but whatever lol. :)

There was an uromastyx in the store and he was the cutest little guy. All up on the glass with his fat little belly begging for attention. The chick I was talking to took him out and we played with him for a few minutes. I kind of wanted to take him home immediately, lol! I already know like copious amounts of information on dogs, cats, most rodents, and some lizards and snakes, it's mostly birds and fishes I need to read up on. I've never had a fish for more than a day and I've never had a bird ever. They are pretty though. But I learn really fast so I figure it won't be too hard for them to train me, but if you have any bird/fish tips that would be cool. I'm quickly becoming something of a beardie genius. Awww yes.

I'll probably just get a normal phase. The hypos and translucents are nice touches, and there's little else that would make me happier than a radioactive orange lizard, but I'm not sure it fits my budget, lol. There is a pretty batch of red/golds and citruses on craigslist, but I'm afraid they won't be for sale by the time I'm ready to buy. So I'll probably just get a normal or if I can find a relatively cheap breeder, I'll spring for a morph. Probably just a normal though. He can be beautiful on the inside. xD

Mostly though morphs only interest me regarding snakes. Pythons specifically. So many beautiful patterns they can have. -Wistful sigh- Someday when I feel like spending thousands of dollars on a snake is a good idea, I'll get a calico or a piebald python lol. Or maybe some other color. Probably a normal one first so I get used to handling them. Then a fancy, gorgeous, drool worthy snake that will make me shed tears from its magnificence.

That's neat :) birds? Depends on the breed. Parakeets and smaller birds normally live around 15 years and have a pink nose if they're female, blue of their male. ****atiels are beautiful and a little larger and live about 20-25 years, along with breeds like Conures. Then you get to the African grey who can live about 30-60 years and has the intelligence of a 5 year old. They can understand language and use words they have learned to form sentences. Other birds that size are ****atoos which are extremely playful and friendly and then my favorite, the Eclectus. Females are a beautiful scarlet red with violet hues and males are a vibrant green. They are lovers if raised correctly. Then we get a little bigger, there's many breeds of Macaw but the blue and gold, scarlet, and green wing are the most popular. They easily reach 80 years old in captivity and are always acting like a 5 year old. I can go on forever. I got to raise a Catalina macaw, a military macaw, two blue and gold siblings and many other smaller birds, it's an incredible experience and I need to post some of my pictures on here because god it is incredible. When I have time I'll post about fish, but hopefully you learned something out of my book hahahaha :)
