right now my charlie is going crazy in his tank. scratching and butting his head against the glass
yea just give him some alone time thats all and slowly reach your hand in the tank in then scoop him up that will let him know your not tryna hurt him just keep practicing that method and he wont see you as a threat anymore also im guessing that you just got him so let him get use to his environment and you and the biting should stop cuz see he probably was neglected by someone and he is not use to being picked up by people so just give him some alone timebeardeddragonlover1":soejaepw said:everytime i get charlie out he bites hard. whenever a friend of the family gets him out charlie bites him hard to make him bleed. my dad found charlie in st.charles missouri i think near a bank or mcdonalds
oh ok but yea like i said give him some alone time and gradually work your way towards him see all bearded dragons have their own personailty some get angry some are nice like mine i had him since he was a baby and never had a problem with him biting me i had him for a year now he's 17 inches when i first got him he was 7 inches so its kind of hard training a older bearded dragon thats why its best to get them while they are young so they can get use to you better by raising them i mean thats just my opinion but slowy move your hand towards him and pet him even if he still backs away if he still wants to bite you then leave him alone for a while then try againbeardeddragonlover1":3f3x4tkn said:my dad found him last year during august and whenever i put my hand in front of him in the tank he always backs away.
nice beardy! how long is he? but yea he is just scared thats all like i said before give some alone time for a while then try again each day keep doing until he feels that your not a threat to him you have to bond with him or else he will never get use to you if he still backs up when you try to pet him still do it anyway cuz then he will get use to your hand and your scent just like dogsbeardeddragonlover1":1pyuuesy said:even when i pet his head when he is in the tank he will back away

really? so when did you start noticing his attitude change?beardeddragonlover1":5iwvziu1 said:on the third day when i got him he crawled up my arm wanting to get him out of the tank but i couldnt because it was getting late.
oh ok yea that could be his personality but you can still tame him to be comfortable around you and other people though just give it try what i told you to do and see what happensbeardeddragonlover1":ygypfgcv said:he has had the attitude since my dad brought him home. but i think charlie has his moments
