As some of you may know from my first post here i own 2 beardies. One male one female. Things have certainly taken a strange turn lately!
My larger female seems very settled and good now. Eating fine, lets me stroke her head no problems, pick her up fine, bath her fine and is about to shed her first skin here!
My smaller male has attitude issues! every time i open his door his throat puffs. This is before i've even approached him. when my hand goes in ( i make sure it's to the side not over him ) his mouth opens and he puffs his neck at me!! Now is this because he's scared or because he is angry? Sometimes i can get a stroke on his head but then he's gone after the first one. and worries me because he runs into his viv glass and really climbs the glass like he desperately wants to get away.
So desperate to get him to be a good handled beardie like the other one is but it seems like he never will because he is so scatty. He has already shed his skin once and eats little but he is eating. I think he's about 4 months old he was weigh'd at 33 grams, where the female was weigh'd at 56 grams and i've had them about 3 weeks now. Little guy seems to get worse and i need advice. Also, how bad does it hurt when they bite, is it dangerous? Many say to jsut grab them and they're get used yet i don't wanna stress the chapy out.
Thanks Guys!
