Hello underoath. If you just got your Beardie, he/she may need a few days to adjust. Do not handle for at least a week. I know it's tempting, but it adds a lot more stress to what it already has. Just make sure you are up to date on care info, enclosure set up, and basking side and cool side temps. Before you know it, he/she will recognize you coming into the room, and paw at the walls to get out and spend time with you. They are the lovable puppy of the reptile world. Good luck with your new friend!
