Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Its eyes glow brightly at night, and it enjoys attacking insects and small animals.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing.

Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it typically marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are often capable of hunting on their own and are usually left alone by their mother.

Garacka is a very sweet but troublesome hatchling. He doesn't mean to cause trouble but it always seems to follow him. He's gotten himself into some big dramas before, but recently he messed up something BIG TIME. Couella, the cheese dragon, had just joined the cave and was very happy but then one day after a long afternoon of playing, Garacka stumbled the cave and noticed a piece of cheese, which was actually Couella's tail spike. Thinking it was a treat from his dragon master, Garake took a huge bite. Since then, Couella has been very shy and Garacka feels terrible for what he did. He has apologized to Couella but the cheese dragon is understandably still upset. Garacka has been trying to be more careful because of the incident but he still ends up getting into trouble.
