I know somewhere I read bearded dragons aren't supposed to eat citrus but since I live in Florida and citrus is literally a staple in my own personal diet & I eat oranges and tangerines every day I had an incident happen that I have never had happen before... I washed my hands after eating a couple tangerines from one of our trees in the grove and well my female trixie licked my finger and proceeded to keep biting which she has never done before at all... she doesn't do it when I hadn't ate one but only when I have the juice/zest oils on my hands so I'm wondering if she does want to eat the fruit or is it possibly something she doesn't like?

does it hurt when she bites? never been bitten before. how old is she?

Even if you wash your hands, the smell will linger when it comes to those fruits.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
