Welcome Grendel


We have a new family member:  Grendel, a 2 month old, 3 legged bearded dragon!  Grace heard about him being up for adoption (for free) and rushed off to rescue him.  He apparently got into a beef with another beardie and lost his front left leg.  His name is Grendel which is the name of a monster in the Old English epic poem, Beowulf.  In the poem, Grendel loses an arm in a fight with Beowulf.  We also call him Lefty and Lenny after my Grandpa who lost his left arm in the war.  He came to us with the name Stumpy so we call him that too!

We need another beardie like we need a whole in our heads but he is pretty darn cute!
