Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It tends to blend into your festive decor.
And look! It’s grown fins and ice has formed down its belly! 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 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.
