Hi
I'm new and this is my first post, besides English is not my native language and I apologize in advance if I write with errors!
I have been reading the forum for a long time, but a question appeared and I decided to write.
Our Foxy is 9 months old, we got him when he was 4 months.
Since then, we have never seen him have a black beard.
Is it possible that a dragon's beard never turns black? Or are we just too small yet?
I worry that I won’t be able to understand if Foxy doesn’t like something or hurts, he won’t be able to show me with the color of his beard that he doesn’t like something.
Yes they can go very long periods of time with no black bearding, especially if he is the only one in your home. It's more likely a female won't black beard than a male but it is possible with a male also. My first dragon Puff only ever black bearded a couple times in her life and i never saw a single head bob from her.
Thank you!
Yes he is only one in our home.
But when he wanders around the rooms and meets the reflection in the mirror, he bob his head very actively, while the beard is not black. Looks like he's a good soul

Reflections will stress him out that's when your going to get a black beard - also improper surface basking temps or temps on the tank improper uvb can cause a black beard

When Foxy was little dragon, he did not notice the reflection, but began to notice only recently.
So, we excluded any mirrors in the area of his walk, that the walk would bring him joy.
I know about setting up UV lamps, so we immediately set them up according to the recommendations found on the site even before Foxy appeared in our home
