Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It occasionally shoots small puffs of smoke from its nose, like it’s trying to breathe fire.

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.

DeKalisteDorkface is a cute Red Dragon hatchling. She is very responsible and works as an Egg Tender. Mostly adult Reds tend to the eggs, but DeKalisteDorkface has a really good control of her fire and is able to help keep the eggs warm and safe.
