Chrimson Fledgling (nether dragon/pheonix)

I had an idea for the Nether Update called the Crimson Fledgling, a small, red, tamable dragon-like creature with the ability to respawn, kind of like a phoenix.

It would spawn in crimson forest trees along with it's nest. It would be found soaring through the nether, while staying within distance from its nest

A fledgling's nest is much like a bed for a player, it can be used to set the spawn point of the Crimson Fledgling upon the fledgling sleeping in it. The nest can be moved by a player to set the fledgling's spawn point to another location. If a fledgling is killed without being set to a nest, it will burst into fire upon death and never respawn again.

Fledglings will respawn as babies in their nests. Baby fledglings can not fly and will remain in their nests until fully grown. Fledglings can not be bred together and are a finite upon world generation

The fledgling can be tamed with Crimson Roots. Tamed fledglings may sit on trusted players shoulders, regenerating the players health.

Adult fledglings will swoop by and breathe fire towards threats.

There could also be a warped variant of this creature, being the cyan color of the warped biome

    This sounds like an excellent and super cool idea! I would love to have a fire-breathing pet that could sit one my shoulder and respawn. It would be interesting if when it was a baby, nether mobs would attack it like they do with turtle eggs. It would also be interesting if, like striders, they cannot touch water without being damaged. I think it would make sense that it's nest can only be placed in the nether.

    Maybe if you break the fledgling’s ‘bed’ the fledgling will disappear, and if you place the bed back down the fledgling will immediately spawn again in an empty area within a few blocks of the bed (or on it). Maybe it looks similar to either a parrot, with some kind of fancy tail or head feathers, or the Ender Dragon, but much smaller?
