New baby! :)

Hey Everyone!
I just wanted to share my exciting news! I'm getting a new baby beardie! She is so cute and I'll get pictures up when I finally get her. Well, I'm saying she but I can't be sure for another few months really. The breeder said that she was 75% sure that it is a female, in which case I am keeping my fingers crossed! I'd really LOVE a female.
She is being sent out on Tuesday for overnight delivery. I am sooo sooo sooo excited! I've got her cage pretty much set up. It's a 20 gallon long(which is only a temporary tank until she needs the upgrade) with reptile carpeting as the substrate. She's got a big branch of driftwood that I found on the beach and used for my last baby dragon. I do have a large granite rock in there also but I'm planning on removing it. I think it's too big and I don't want to take the chance of the little baby getting stuck under the boulder! Hehe.
Also, instead of buying a UV light... she is going to share one with Chester(my 8 month male dragon). She gets it in the morning and part of the afternoon and Chester gets it late afternoon and in the evening. I'll buy her a UV light of her own in August but I don't feel like going out and spending $50 on a light fixture and then $20 for the bulb at a pet store when I can buy the fixture AND bulb for $20 total at my local herp show on August 31st.
Anyway... enough rambling... I just wanted to share my very exciting news!

P.S.- Chester is REALLY hoping he'll have a girlfriend, hehe.

Thanks Eyespy!
By the way... what does everyone think her name should be?

1. Sabriel
2. Galadriel
3. Arwen
4. Alakina

I'm leaning towards Sabriel right now, but I'm keeping an open mind.

Congrats.

I always like names with a Tolkien influence.

Big Mike: As do I... however, I don't like common names and Tolkien is becoming a little too popular now. Hum ho!

I've think I've decided to go with Sabriel.

You could alway use a Tolkien inspired name that is not in the movie...or not even in Lord of the Rings.

Sabriel is nice too.
