Please help mean beardie!

[mybeardieslovefood]

My beardie baby I got two months ago is so mean! She runs around the cage when my hand goes in her cage. When she sees me looking at her she backs up. Please anyone have advice for me. I got this one so I could train her to be nice.

That is exactly what you must do, train her.

Babys are often much more afraid than adults but you still have to put in some effort to make a beardie tame. Just handle her everyday and eventually she will get used to you and start to like the interaction.

yeah, baby beardies are like Childs, They think You want to catch it and put it I donnow where, YOu have to start easily, You should try to pet it and when it doesn't wants to just watch it around 20 minutes or so, and then try to pet it again

You can also try handling after lights out and when they first wake up. They are sleepy and slow so probably wont give you that hard of time.
