Kayla Digs!
2 Days ago I walked her in the backyard, after the lawnmowerman came, and she took immediately to a patch of anthill that had been tossed about. To her it smelled interesting, and then she started to DIG! Finally! I'd put some clay in her cage back in like September but she wouldn't dig back then, but boy howdy she was diggin up that anthill debris!

Too bad there was nothing under it except for the concrete around the pool.
After 'while, took her back in, but she went for the "outside window" in the den, so I took her to the front yard where I knew a sandy spot was. All I did was dig with my finger in front of her twice and dig she did! And dig and dig and dig and dig... until the local mosquitoes came out! Dug a pretty good-sized hole for about 90 minutes. That explains the scratching she'd been doing around her cage. First I thought she was bored, then I thought she wanted to cuddle, then I thought she wanted to deliberately wake me up, but NO- the gal wants to DIG.

What the heck for I dunno. Last time she was around a male was just before I bought her back in August, so she can't have eggs...

Well, this just proves once again that the dragon and I deserve each other. Up in DC I was notorious for diggin' to China. Found a large brick-sized piece of local quartz once, but no China. I wonder what Kayla's 'buried treasure' is.
