  1. it is always hard to tell, if a female is involved alan it can be mating overtures or general asserting dominance it is a fine line in beardie language the biting her beard might be him testing the water so to speak the general demeanour of both dragons is important how they hold their body and head height and speed of the bobbing are to be taken into consideration also hopefully someone else will shed a better light on this
  2. welcome to the forum good to see another local on board

  6. huge money is being invested in aquaculture these days, they say it is so they don't have to catch fish from the ocean i just think they have ruined the natural breeding stock in the ocean with over fishing and poor assessments of the effects of overfishing and age fish breed at as fishbreeder has probably realised keeping a large land based marine system going can be expensive
  7. she is still tiny highlanders put out a small calf antway, good for 1st time calving my mate used my big bull over his simmentals, then bred down from there made a nice square animal, big backside, flat back and good shoulders faster growing than the highlander, low cholesterol meat and a above average yeild

  17. yes spoon should probably be an upper size limit on them the younger ones are best tasting but the older ones have to much mana to kill them they should have respect for how long they have managed to survive yes constructed the tank, cut down a large water tank cut it with a chainsaw, marked it for height i wanted laid it on its side then rolled as i cut best laugh was pulling the top off my son after it flopped on him then cut top edge out to put back on base tried open top but too much alge so put top back on cut window in out of 10mm acrylic
