Henry (8 months) always wants to be on my shoulder. If I hold him in my hands, he will turn around and jump on my shoulder. If I open his tank and kneel next to it, he will jump out onto my shoulder. If I hold my arm out to him, he will get on and climb up onto my shoulder. If I remove him from my shoulder, he will do his darnedest to try to get back up. He will perch there happily while I walk around and do things. I always pet him when he is there. Maybe he likes being petted, or maybe he just views it as an acceptable consequence of being in his favorite place. I'm a little worried he will scare my friends by jumping on them when I can have people over again someday, but I don't think I'll start discouraging him from jumping on me, because I like it and I'm the only person who interacts with him regularly. None of my previous bearded dragons were jumpers or shoulder-obsessed like this. Does your bearded dragon jump on you? Does it do it to anyone else?
