Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It hits you with its wings if it feels threatened.

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.

Little Hognose enjoys worming his way into warm sand and peeping his head to watch fellow sand-loving hatchlings. He does get a little squished if others don't realize he's there, but it's never caused him much harm.

His wings aren't able to properly carry him so if he tries to take flight he tends to flop around like a baby bat. So instead, Hognose might cling onto older hatchlings if he has the desire to fly.

He and Bee, oddly, get along, though Bee tends to push him over whenever an adult isn't looking.
