Picking up my first beardie !!!

So we were approached by a woman looking to rehome a 5yr old male.She asked me first if I ever had any reptiles. I told her what we have and she said she felt we were a suitable home for him. "he must be taken care of" she said. He will be... no worries there. I asked her how much and she said free so of course we will take him. Then she tells me I get the 110 gallon tank with 4 lights a stand enough substrate for 2 cleanouts and some food. So a proper rehome and not a sale. . Can't wait. Post pics tomorrow!! Me and the boys are stoked

Leaving in an hour to go get him.
Yes I couldn't believe all the stuff she was tossing in. Obviously she truly cares about his well being after we take him. That's good karma!!!

Re: Picking up my first beardie !!!

Ok I got him so total haul was 110gal on stand with accesories. Also threw in 6 lights ,2 cricket keepers about 7-8 pieces of driftwood some bowls and hides a skull and a complete setup for frogs without the tank. Even gave me a tupperware full of superworms. All for FREE!!! Yup she dis just want him to go to a good home. I offered her some $$$ and she wouldn't have it.
Well here are a couple quick shots. I will do a proper profile in the next few days.
Say hi to Dexter!!!




And the big tank with nothing in it yet.

Nice pick up man, I love seeing people who care for the greater good of their pet over money.

Re: Picking up my first beardie !!!

So he looks overweight?
Tiles sounds like a plan. I need to see some other peoples setups.
He is so easy going. Wow. I just gave him a few superworms and he went right at them.
I guess the drive didn't hurt his appetite.
