Hi, I noticed that my 1month old bearded dragon closes his eyes while I pet him. I got him around 10 days ago and he's pretty used to me now. What does it mean when he closes his eyes? :?:
Can be he's in heaven and loving it and has started getting real relaxed and is nodding off , if he opens them and looks up at you if you stop petting it means " please don't stop " or "did I ask you to stop"
or
he is pretending he's dead in the hope you''ll go away.... happy colours are great indicator , or the lack thereof.
Really depends on how comfortable and safe he feels with you and how much he trusts you.
