Armin suddenly angry at me

[jdkane527]

Yesterday I let my dragons roam around my room, and they found spots to sleep in around the room. At the end of the night, I picked them up and tried putting them back in their viv, but then the male started blackbearding and puffing up with his mouth open trying to bite me. I fed him some silkworms and when I hand fed it, it tried biting my fingers.

Will this kind of behavior persist for sometime or was he just acting in self defense from being disturbed? This is the first time he has shown aggression towards humans.

Sometimes dragons will act aggressive if they are woken up and moved when they are sleeping. He might be spooked for a couple days but its nothing serious, he will get over it

just yesterday my beardie blackbearded at me for the second time ever since i got him and both times it was because i woke him up too fast/suddenly and i guess it startled him. neither times was he trying to bite, nor did he even open his mouth. this time he just bearded and gave me the "WTF" look and sat there puffed up for a couple seconds, so i slowly grabbed him and just moved him into his basking log and he calmed down in less then an hour or so.

hope the leo's are adjusting well btw.

Leos I have away from the dragons. When I had them next to a younger German Giant x Sandfire, the little guy was tripping out and kept running around the tank.

Armin has calmed down today and is back to normal.

Thats good, glad he is calmed down.
