You should see, or probably have, some of the whopper mistakes I have made lately. Strange things like when writing, a whole different word makes it to the word processor than what I had intended to write. Another one, constantly forgetting ed's - in fact, I just reread this before posting...constantly had a ing at the end of it. It all started after that miserable spine surgery. I have to do it again?

My dragon loves the dubias. We had talked about the dubias quite some time ago. I began breeding them shortly after getting my dragon after seeing the quality of crickets from the stores and mail order. Raising my own gives me piece of mind. After having the Sun conures I really never expected in my life to end up with a Bearded Dragon, I love him! Thank you!
