I had been on vacation for a few months while my mother took great care of my beardie, but when I returned she had gotten to be such a big girl with some very big fingernails! She is right at about 1 year of age, 3/4 a pound and a long girl as well *( not sure exact length). Well before I left I never had any issues with being scratched, but now any time I hold her - even her just holding on, she leaves scratches that become bloody and painful. They are so bad it looks like I have a litter of kittens after holding her the last five days - some one have any ideas? Thanks =)
