our friendly American dragon did not breathe fire


Hey, John !

That's quite easy to fix, if you know why dragons breathe fire, in the first place.
It's only a diet problem.
With nowadays alimentation (bad food habits...), most dragons (and especially american ones) no longer feed themselves correctly.

First, the gas production : to produce the necessary methane, dragon's food has to be rich in cellulose (less meat, more vegies)

Second : the sparking system ; in order to produce healthy sparks, a dragon has to ingest, at least once or twice a year, a good supply of flint rocks.
Note : zippo flint are much too small .... you need rocks the size of your two fists together or a bit larger (depends on the size of yuour dragon's mouth/ throat : he has to swallow them easily)


I got most of these info from my cousin, who is now a certified vet, with a 5 year specialization in dragon's anatomy.
And the other stuff comes from "The Book of dragons - how to care for them", translated from an old french mediaval incunabulum, transmitted thru the ages, in my familly, since the early 1080's !! (which is why my cousin took the specialization courses in dragon's anatomy ...)
