Bonding

[breeyawnah]

So I've had my beardie for about 6 months now, hes almost a year!! Ahhhh. I love him to death. Sometimes I wrap him up in a warm towel at night before his lights go out and pet him to sleep. (See what I did there?) I let Thor run around and I throw worms that he chases after... its like.. Non-returning fetch.
I was wondering if you guys do any special bonding things with your Bearded Dragons, if so tell me!

Naughtica used to fall asleep on my pillow while we would watch TV together. I think I have a picture somewhere. I will try to find it..

Troy has his own couch. I am jealous of Troy.

Tasty Treat likes to watch anime with us.
Mr Dargon loves to hang out on me, and he loves going outside. I take him out with me during the summer, he loves it.

making beardie burritos at night seems to help greatly with bonding. (wrapping them up in blankies and cuddling with them, not making actual burritos and eating them...)

I AGREE! Lucky Troy with his own couch! I always make Thor into a burrito. Hes definitely not fat enough to eat yet

Si and I are still bonding. But, he doesn't mind being held. He is still a active Juvi. So Doesn't sit still long. But, After his bath we sit with him wrapped in a towel and he sleeps for about 10 min. Lol Then he is ready to haul tail! I am Too paranoid to let him go free yet as he doesn't know me well yet. But He likes to have his Chin rubbed, and is fine with his feet, Tail, Mouth, anything touched! So, I am sure in a matter of time he will love me just as much as i Love him!

My favorite things to do with Dewey were... 1) holding him night covered with a blanket while fell asleep... 2) walking him outside when it was warm enough (always with a harness/leash)... 3) just lounging outside in the sun holding him. When he was young he was afraid to go outside, but as he got older he learned to love it.

I have my 6-8 month old come out with me every night, she lays on my chest with a little blanky I made her and falls asleep/cuddles while we watch tv before bed. And sometimes during the day too, though I always take her out multiple times a day.

Thor is 7 months and he despises the outdoors! He puffs up and hisses at me, then once we reach the door its heaven again. I love to wrap him and watch tv. I have cats also, so I can't ALWAYS let him run around my room. Hes pretty tough though, he scares two of them.

Dewey never puffed or hissed at me, but he clung on extra tightly while we were outside. He'd tuck his head under my chin too. I hated seeing him scared, but felt that he would enjoy being outside and getting real sun if I kept bringing him out. It took some time, but he did eventually like it. It got to the point where I'd put a harness on him and we'd walk around the yard at his pace. His pace consisted of laying there, running a good 10 strides or so, then laying there again.
