He is a Medieval Spandoria Dragon. Not yet fire-breathing, but he will soon. He is relatively small now (can fit into a doghouse), but will soon have to put him in the garage.
Main thing, I know, is to keep him secret--night flight only. But I am also a bit concerned about what to feed him. I've heard of a couple of cow mutilations at the dairy up the road, but I can't be sure it was Stradivar (that's the name I gave him).
I don't want him to prey on someone's livelihood. I've actually thought of moving to south Florida and letting him feed on the gators and larger game in the Everglades. But as you know, dragons hibernate, and without the cue of cold weather and snow, they may not do so, and this could cause trouble. Also, the heat down there is bad, and dragons fare better in more temperate climates (mid- to northern European temperatures, but not artic like temperatures--except for Snow Dragons).
Your thoughts?

Stradivir might do very well if you move to the Northwest coast, maybe Wyoming or Colorado, close to the Rockies. Even Lake Tahoe in California would work. In the Rockies, it's nice in the summer, with degrees going to the mid-70's at their highest, and nights cool enough for a little log fire in the chimney. A fire-breathing dragon would be very useful for that! It's plenty cold in the winter there, too. In any of these places, you'd get to ski in the winter while your boy hibernates! Lots of mountains in that area-you could maybe even get a nice little cabin close to a cave, so he'd be more comfortable. You wouldn't have to worry too much about finding food for him: there's LOTS of wildlife in the Rockies and, actually, if you move to Wyoming, there's big herds of wild buffalo there that he can hunt. No need to worry about him killing somebody's cows-you won't have to worry about getting sued by a farmer. Living in the Northwest will also make it much easier to hide him, since there are no big cities close by-just acres and acres of pine forest. Nights are nice and dark (again: no cities) and all the stars are visible, so you'd get a great view while riding him, but no one would be able to see him.
This option would solve most of your issues for you. You'd have to wait until you can ride him at night for the move, though-I don't think a commercial airline would allow you to take him with you, even in cargo. He might set the plane on fire if he hiccups.

As he gets bigger, I'd put a fake fur coat on him and take him to illegal dog fights. The money you make can keep Stradivar in steaks for awhile (provided he doesn't snarf his opponents). It would be better to stay in cold temperatures for the hibernating thing because you don't want knights on a quest hanging around your place all year. Once he gets of the age where he can breathe fire, you might want to take out extra insurance on your place and maybe add something to cover your neighbors, too.
Keep him away from the dairy up the road--you don't want him getting mad cow disease.

hmm, an interesting thought to wonder if animals would hibernate in warm temperatures? but i would never recommend moving a dragon to florida. i lived there for 8 years, and although i have never made contact with a dragon, i might suggest moving to a less populated area with a lower climate. yeah, maybe montana. or colorado. plus the mountains there would be a great place to fly?

no longer an extremely thorough answer, yet mine likes alfalfa pellets extra appropriate than something for a bedding and For a infant or a juvenile a 20 gallon is nice, yet as an person, he will desire a lots extra beneficial tank, like seventy 5 long. So i could shop up my money and pass quickly to the great one so whilst he grows up, you have no longer have been given a 20 gallon tank which you spent money on sitting there doing no longer something. properly, good luck!!

first, were did you get him and how do you know if its a male or female? how long have you had it and how ond do you think it is? has it started hoarding things yet? has it started repeating what you say? what colors is it? i'm sure you can tell by now that i am a believer, i even bought my son the book of dragonology for x-mas. i would need to know the answers to the "?"'s i asked before i can help, sorry. if you would like to discuss this more, my e-mail is in my profile. good luck!!!
