Lizard’s tail twitching

So whenever I reach my hand into Larry’s tank, her tail twitches at the tip like shes mad/excited or something, but she doesn’t act aggressive or anything. She also does this when she’s hunting when I put food in her tank. anyone else experience this/knows what this means? at first I thought it was basically the equivalent of a dog wagging its tail but that’s probably a dumb thing to think lol. Appreciate any help!

edit: even when she’s not hunting, her tail twitches. It’s not at the base it’s the very end of her tail 🤣

It probably looks like the tail twitching of a leopard when it's hunting and about to make the final lunge.
By the way, I have a short video of my dragon and his tail.

I've seen my dragons swish their tails also. Snicker Doodles would do it when she was really excited or just about to expode in to action.

Okay so I managed to get a video on my phone of it! Does this mean that she is happy?

I'm still in disbelief you were able to tame a fence lizard 🦎 lol.
Tbh it probably means she's annoyed lol. If I was annoying Snickers she would do that also.
lol, it wasn’t easy 😅 haha I kinda thought so, I mean if I were being held hostage by a 19 year old girl that always takes pictures/videos of me….i would be too 🤣

It’s been a month since I’ve joined bd.org! It feels like it’s been longer than that, but I’m glad I’m here and apart of this lovely community!
I can feel her staring into my soul demanding food
She was having a staring contest with a mealworm. I guess I never taught her to not play with her food, lol.
bro went to bed already, it’s 10:36 pm
Definitely going to be using this image if I ever catch a fence lizard again.
