My bearded dragon, Riley, died today.
I bought him as a gift for my boyfriend at the Sarasota, FL Repticon in April of 2010.

We discovered that his UVB light expired about a month prior. During that month, my boyfriend broke his leg and had to take a leave of absence from work, leaving us with no money to replace the lights.
It breaks my heart that he had to suffer a death like this...
We still have our Uro and B/W Tegu, who are all getting brand new lights tomorrow.

I just hope everyone who becomes a first time reptile owner does their research and realizes how much money it takes for their up-keep. =(
