so my beardie does this thing alot...after he has eaten, after a bath, when he sees other people...and just for no reason too.
it looks like he has hiccups or something...its not head bobbing, it looks like he is swallowing, but he does it like 5-10 times in a row, like hiccups...
what do you think it could be? does it mean something, good or bad?
I don't think its being mad. Smurf does it after he gets all the crickets, sometimes even before he's caught them all. That's the only change in behavior from his normal, and he doesn't seem to control it.
If he is a baby yet he may be learning to use his beard! But as long as their is no clicking or wheezing you are fine!! Good luck, any more questions just ask!!
I have a question on this subject. When Ziggy takes a bath he puffs all up, puffs his beard in and out and occaionally huffs (the sound of pushing air thru your nose forcefully). I contribute it to him hating the bath and having a temper tantrum.... It's the only time he gets this worked up and the only time he does the huffing thing. Is that ok? he is 3 1/2 months and 13+ inches, if that helps.
