Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon.

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.

ButterflyCharmer is a mature Pink Dragon hatchling. Because his mother is a bit touched in the head ButterflyCharmer has matured beyond his years. He spends almost every hour with his mother, BalloonOfPie, helping his father, MilkWeedMonarch.
