Did my girl squeak?

[Esther19]

My research indicates that the only vocalizing beardies do is to make a soft hissing sound when they feel threatened. That being said...my Cissy made a squeak and jumped the other night while she was sleeping. I figured she was dreaming. It was not the dogs I heard, because Cissy sleeps right beside me in a shallow, blankie-filled box at the head of the bed. She was less than 18 inches away from my face. I was not in any type of altered state, nor was I dreaming.

Has anyone else had the same experience?

Thanks,
Esther

Wouldn't know. They have their own bedroom and I don't want to know what happens behind closed doors at night... :lol:. In reality, I have never heard of anything like this.

Thanks for your reply. Lol. I keep her by me because she has been sick, and I would hate for her to die alone. Now she's improving, but I still like to have her nearby.

From what I understand, geckos are the only lizards with vocal cords.

My beardie Thor sometimes lets out a little lizard sigh, which I guess is just a loud exhaling of air. He seems to do it after settling in while hanging from my girlfriend's hair.

Another hair-loving beardie. Thanks for your reply.
I guess if they have no vocal cords they can't squeak, can they?
Thanks again!
Esther

thebenior, my beardie Pablo does this all the time! Scared me the first few times! Another time I thought he was making some weird noise he was trying to eat my hair :shock: It's his favorite hang out place

Heh, my beardie Thor once attacked my girlfriend's hair when she looked down with his viv door open. He just bit it once, probably thought, "Not a bug," and let go. Another time, we picked him up from my parents who were watching him while we went on a snowboarding trip. My girlfriend scooped him out of his tank, he climbed around to the back of fuzzy yarn-stranded mohawked stocking cap (sort of like this instance, but with a hat on). We heard smacking noises, she said, "Ah, he's doing something!" Turns out he was trying to eat the yarn on the hat, and we heard his little jaws smacking. :lol:
