When gentling a dragonet at hatching, there is a generally agreed upon ideal order of operations.  This is based on the availability of, and the performance of, the ideal painkillers used in and around the process.  With other equipment, the process will change as a result of adapting the protocol to their properties.

Required:
Anaesthetic spray gun
Anaesthetic injection gun
Particle-proof shield, 1.5mm polymer or stainless steel
Microchip implanting syringe, factory sealed
Scalpel, #15 recommended.

Ahead of time:  Either prepare two presets on an anaesthetic injection gun, or two guns.  One preset should be set for approximately 1cm injection depth, the other should be a small intra-dermal injection into the mid-dermis.  Begin with the gun in the deep preset.  Test the microchip intended for implantation, and ensure the code matches the serial number on the packaging and insert.

Restraint or tranquilizer is unnecessary, though assistance is helpful.  Generally, the hatchling should be kept in a reclining position, but not prone.  Generally, if held in an assistant's lap, the hatchling's tail should be to the assistant's left, and the head to the assistan'ts right.  This facilitates the standard placement of the microchip implant above the right ear, exposing all areas of concern during the procedure, but without resting on the wings or causing distress by holding the young dragon on its back, which is generally poorly tolerated.  If the mother can be relied upon to participate, the dragonet may be nursing during the procedure.
