This........is Mr. Dragon.
(I'da shown you Mrs. Dragon too, but she was busily chomping down her supper and that's just gross......)
Mr. Dragon has happily grown in his little kingdom.
He eats crickets and wax wormy thingies.

This--is the 'dead cricket hopping' cage.Yup.....the little suckers don't have a clue why they're there and I ain't tellin' 'em.
I especially ain't tellin' 'em cuz whilest himself is over there--yours truly gets to send wax wormy thingies and crickets to their death.
Yup.
Mel gets to feed Mr. and Mrs. Dragon.
Now---the good news is I don't actually haffta touch any of 'em.
Wax wormy thingies come from a little carton and go to the Dragon's bowl via a plastic spoon.
This--is very good.

The 'dead cricket hopping' cage has tubes the soon-to-become-a-meal crickets innocently crawl into.This is the tube that I then carry to the cage and shake the crickets out of.
They hop.
They sing.
And about three days later--all's silent in the Dragon household.

(This is his little dragon 'happy face'--you'll just haffta trust that one......)
(Ummm........when is he coming back, again?......)
