Hey everybody!
My name's Vanessa and I just got my baby bearded dragon named Merlin last week!
I'm a first time reptile owner so all of this is very exciting yet also nerve wracking for me, but I hope I get a hang of it in the coming months and years with my beardie
I had to transport him from my mom's house to where I live in Montreal (Canada), a 5 hour drive, and since then he's been a little different, sleeping a lot and not eating his crickets as much, but I'm assuming that's just him dealing with the trauma of moving
Also, as I said I've had him for a week and he still gets scared and runs away every time I try to put my hand in near him,
so how long do you think it will take him to warm up to me and want to be held, and is there anything I can do to make that happen easier?
Also any advice you can give would be great!
here's a picture of the cutie pie:
and sleeping like a cat:
