Well, I see you just bought a dragon. Or possibly you are thinking of getting one. No matter! I should teach you how to raise a dragon.

First, buy the egg. The seller will know which species is which. Then after you buy it put it in a freezer for 3-6 days if you want a girl. If you want a boy put it in a wood stove or an oven at 360 degrees Celsius for 2-4 days.

Once it hatches it's time to feed it. Feed a girl 30 carrots a day. Feed a boy 10 steaks a day for eight weeks.

Put it in a fire place (preferably wood stove or furnace) for three days to make the fire-breathing actions kick in.

Now the wings are starting to sprout. The boy's wings are thicker for attack. The girl's wings are wide and netlike to hold their children or eggs.

Your dragon is probably about 10 feet tall now. This is when the hormones start kicking in. They are a lot more moody, much more dangerous, and a ton more annoying and hungry.

Now you're dragon is probably at 450+ feet. It is now an adult. A girl dragon is a lot more protective than the boys. The boys are a lot more warlike.

To tell if your dragon is pregnant look at its lower abdomen. It is whiter than when it isn't pregnant. It doesn't grow while pregnant but becomes moody, hungry, and really sick. Dragons are not mammals. They are reptiles. So they lay eggs. It takes 9-18 months before an egg has been laid in it's nest.

That's all you can know from me. Experiment! Crossbreed! There is no more you need to know to raise them!

Thank you for reading!
