beardie parents":1xe4x8hp said:Miss O, one of the first two beardies we had, we got them 7 years ago, last Wednesday (11/23). Once she realized we loved her and wouldn't get rid of her she loved us. She was one who had to be loved. She got really scared when she heard the beep of a school buss and one time we weren't there to stop her, by the time my husband got back to where she was, she had disappeared. We never found her but the next morning about 11am I was going out the front door of my house, I looked down and saw her sitting in some wild flowers that were there at the time. She was looking at me with total trust, she knew we would come and get her. She knew we loved her and she loved us. No one can convince me otherwise. Goldie is a lot like Miss O but not quite as loving as Miss O, but she is loving and she needs to sleep on us before we put her in her tank. It's easier for us and her this time of year because I can wear two shirts and put her in between them so the lights we have on won't bother her. If I leave her in the bed until we go to bed and just pick her up and put her in her hide, she fights me more than if she's been on my shoulder for a few hours.
That is SO cute. I could picture Miss O's face when you looked in the wildflowers as if she were like "Mommy, you found me!" And yeah, It's like that with Fiz. I have to take him out, let him explore until he finds a nice dark, cozy fold in the sheets, wait for him to snuggle up and go to sleep, and then I have to reach in and pick him up and fold him in his blanket and then put him back in his viv. He seems to like me. Although, he gets really annoyed when my little dog comes in the room while he's on the floor.
