Hatchling will die if it doesn’t grow up in: 5 days and 7 hours

Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It’s very noisy.

And look! It has grown feathers! 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.

(The owner of this hatchling is accepting aid from others.)
