Live Lizard Reaction

This blog exists to answer the age-old question nobody ever asked: Can lizards use Tumblr? With the help of her blog manager, Xion will be shown posts and her reaction will be photographed. Sure she can't talk, but a picture paints a thousand words, right?

Who - or WHAT is Xion? Xion (she-on) is a self-proclaimed dragon - she's technically not wrong! She's a Central Bearded Dragon (Pogona vitticeps), a species of reptile native to central Australia. She was found left behind in a dingy garage, tiny and hungry. She's grown a lot since then!

Can she react to my post? What she reacts to depends on the posts her blog manager finds. Feel free to send us a link to any and all posts though! However, she is not allowed to react to political posts due to her...questionable opinions.

Why are her scales white? Is she ok? If her scales are starting to turn white it means she's about to shed! She does this every few months. Just know she tends to be a bit more irritable when she's itchy...

What's on her face? Xion is a messy eater and sometimes has a bit of food on her face. If it's red, she likely got a strawberry as a treat.

There's something wrong with her tank! If you spot something off with my husbandry, PLEASE let me know! Since caring for her was jumped on me, I'm mostly playing it by ear. I do my research, but sometimes things get jumbled up and I make mistakes. My family is also currently going through some financial issues and I'm struggling to find a job due to physical disability, so it takes a bit to convince my mother to even replace a bulb.

(That being said, currently I'm in the process of setting up her new tank! You might see her running around in either in photos. Please know that loose substrate won't cause impaction as long as the rest of your husbandry is correct! Basically, if she eats some while grabbing a bug she should be able to pass it just fine.)
