His name is Pączki! He was born naked because of a genetic mutation, causing him to have no scales. Which is very very bad.
Luckily, the breeder I contacted inquiring about a different adoption offered him up to me for a 20$ after hearing that I had years of experience rescuing and fostering.
I had NO plans to get a “special needs” animal, but he tugged at my heartstrings, and we’ve been together for 3 years now! I learned so much about these guys (their care is wildly misunderstood, as not many people own them/can keep them alive for very long), and he is what brings me joy and happiness everyday.
Please do NOT support the practice of breeding or selling scaleless bearded dragons!! Their skin is very sensitive, and their need to rub on rough objects while shedding is… well, in their nature, so doing so without scales with damage them without proper diligence.
Pet your lil guys often. (:
Aww :)
