Shall We Monitor His Lizards?
A teenage boy who keeps dozens of reptiles in the garage of his parents' house in West Lothian, Scotland, has added two of the world's rarest lizards to his collection. Jordan Davidson, 14, has bearded dragons, bosc monitors, uromastyx, chameleons and a royal python he was given as a Christmas present. He also has 25 baby dragons, 20 hatchlings and 27 eggs in an incubator. He has now bought two endangered Fiji iguanas, which he hopes to be able to breed. He hopes to donate the lizards, which he has named Rhubarb and Custard, to Edinburgh Zoo after breeding them.
FOOTNOTE: He's not dragon his heels.

Well, it seems like he's responsible enough. Hatchlings and babies take a healthy environment to produce - so good on him, eh? He's probably going to be the next reptile keeper at that zoo you mentioned.
Oh dear, you've mentioned lizards. Dilly's going to be round here soon....
And yes, go ahead- I'd be very honoured if you reviewed my blogs!
(WOW!)
:^)
Quite a big number of reptiles for a 14 year old! He is obviously doing a very good job but I wonder when he started his collection.
Hi Carol,
Absolutely - he's done a great job. He might be the next Gerald Durrell.
Hang on 'alf a mo - you've just given me an idea for a blogpost!

Er.. should we wait to be asked for a site review (not that I want one of course)?
Hi Carol,
Site review? Ma'am, I would be honoured to review your site.
Got a bit of a backlog at the moment - about six in the queue. But I will do 'em as quick as I can - while keeping my eye on completing the novel, of course.
Keep smiling
David
