Hi everyone! I purchased a baby bearded dragon almost 6 weeks ago and the first week I was able to hold him every day “several times a day”. NOW....maybe once every two weeks :(

He stares at me from the tank, gets my attention with his hand gesture, lets me feed him by hand “here and there” and pet his head when he’s at rest on the hammock.

Any suggestions?? I’ve tried reaching in from his side to pick him up and all he does is jump around like a jumping jack hissing with his mouth open.

At the moment he sees the hand as predator by instinct.

Place a desireable looking live worm in your upturned hand and place it where he can see the worm.
He'll soon learn to associate the hand with something nice and learn not to fear your hand. rn

I do this with wild gecko,skinks,dragons,birds and frogs ,works are treat, a bit of patience and they soon learn not to fear me.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
