This is more of a behavior question, but I don't want to confuse things by starting another thread somewhere else. My husband is retired and kept a close eye on these two today. Seems the rescue really started coming out of his shell. So much so that we're wondering if our "probable" male Spot is really a girl. This is a question for the experts. Would a male allow another dragon, of any sex, less than half his size to lay on top of him? A new dragon in his home? Would he allow this puny dragon to climb over him on his favorite branch and take the higher basking position? Spot has always been very sweet and calm. This rescue, however, seems to get more spastic the more comfortable he becomes. He paces, he plays in the water, he tries to climb out of the enclosure, he climbs one branch and then another, he climbs on Spot and waves, etc. My husband is convinced Spot is a female. I told him you don't sex dogs and cats that way. Just because it's a lizard doesn't make it archaic (spelling?). Could the rescue's behavior be because he's not well? Or just personalities? Anyway, any thoughts?
