When I was a little (about 5 or 6) we had a joey that dad rescued from it's mum's pouch. I had a big green and very tame tree frog who adopted me and I called him (I think he was a he , but I'm not sure now) Freddy. I kept a bunch of skinks , bearded dragons , bluetongue lisards and some legless lizards and even some snakes for while when I was a teenager (Black and brown snakes that I'd caught when out lisarding , my reflexes were like lightning then - I caught them by hand when they were small , still dangerours when small too). Kept them in fish tanks in the garage - my mum hated them and refused to go near them. I also kept a tortoise that I caught as pet for while. Got a very tame and very large bluetongue lisard that lives under the house and comes when I call , it's partial to mealworms and keeps the snails and slugs at bay in the vege patch. It must be 20 years old and knows us well and that we will never harm it. We've also a tribe of very tame and friendly magpies and rosellas who we've befriended and no longer fear us , got to watch magpies and their chicks (been visiting us for freebies for several years now and aways introduce the chicks to us as soon as they get out of the nest), they have been known to follow my wife and I inside (pretty cheaky !!!). The magpies have us trained rather them being trained by us .... I think.

I looks like a half spider and half cat, it does what normal cats do when they are cross breed with spiders. |

They're nice animals , ugly as hell , but nice , just keep your fingers out of it's mouth , they can really bite and have razer sharp teeth (even if their teeth are small). So , what do you feed your dragon ? |

She is as docile as you could imagine. A chap can pick her up and she flat out lays there. Never grumpy. Will not bite. She likes to have a go at the wax worms and the superworms. She'll get after some crickets but they stink and die quickly during their keep. Shes a beauty. |
