Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It must be very shy since it keeps hiding from you.

It’s gotten slightly bigger! 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.

MC Ian, or Mr. 4550 (4550 being his code) , enjoys playing with I Lik 2 Count, and, on occasion, Skywatcher II. He finds the prospect of a "Draco School" highly interesting, and

is a big dreamer. His life-deciding phrase, "Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure

imagination," is from Willy Wonka's "Pure Imagination". He, like any Mint, is very shy, but seeing him scampering about playing "Hide-and-go-seek" (a game where he ALWAYS wins), you'd think just the opposite.
