I really want to pick up my beardie but I am scared. She has never been handled before and I just heard that she bit her former own. She lets me hand feed her and pet her head but when I am petting her she like to suddenly turn her head with her eye faceing up where my finger is petting her, like she wants me to pet her eye or something. It gives me the feeling that she is about to bite me. She eyes my hand alot like I have food in it or something, which also makes me nervous.
Everytime I get home from work she is taning on her branch that is like 5" from the lid, she is alot meaner looking when she is basking and it looks like she is eyeing the top of the cage to jump out!
Has anyone else ever had this problem or am I just a wimp? This is my first reptile so I am not use to reading their behavior. I know it is importaint to handle them and I want to but.........
