beardie has fangs?

[reytamminen]

so today chompy was sittin w his mouth open and i noticed he has like. two front fangs. like he looks like a vampire. they’re tiny, but they’re still there. it was difficulty to get him to open his mouth so i can’t really get a good pic, but is this normal? he has one on both sides

I dont know about normal.
I DO know sticking your finger in a beadies mouth is a good way to get bit lol. Those guys will chomp down on anything that makes it past their lips :-0

That might explain why your beardie trys to snuggle right against your neck lmao

that’s so funny bc chompy like. is not like that at all i’ve only been bitten by him once and that was when i was hand feeding him and he missed the berry

Lol yeah, i was just making jokes. The fangs was to good to pass up lol.
Although if you get your finger in there they will usually nip until they realize its not food. I have 3 and all 3 have bitten me on occasion trying to get a stubborn hornworm or a quick dubia. But they always release as soon as they figure out its my finger. It dont usually hurt but my male has drew blood a few times. He is a big ole boy though around 1000 grams.

That’s so interesting! I have starred into my dragons mouth a million zillion times over the years (cuz I’m fascinated with everything about her ) … and I don’t think she has that going on, but ofcourse now I’m going look even more intensely next time she has it open! Not sure about the normalcy aspect of it … like I’m so tempted to take her out in the sun right now b/c that’s when she really really does some major thermoregulating just so I can do a hardcore stare . I can see myself laying on the grass in the weirdest position just to get a good look up in there … my neighbors already see me out with her in the summer/ talking to her out there in the yard so what’s one more odd thing I do thing to add to the list ya know? Thanks for sharing that! Dragon people everywhere will now be checking for lil fangs. I’m actually super interested to see if others do have a little longer teeth up front! If I do see anything that resembles yours I will grab a pic.
