Shedding..?

[MintyGamer]

My beardie, Nova, is normally the sweetest critter ever, but today she started acting strange. Her head was turning grey like she was getting ready to shead. Nova typically enjoys being held and loved, but I went to pick her up today and she hissed at me... Right now as I type this, she's scratching (or digging?) At a layered rock decoration at the cool end of her tank.
I heard they start acting a little strange when they are getting ready to shead, is that all? Or is there something more to worry about..?

The same happens to my beardie. Diesel tends to be more sassy than usual during shed. You'll know when they are in shed if they are turning grey. Also, make sure you give your beardie a bath, because yours may be scratching because it's itchy. Mine does that as well, then I give her a bath and gently rub my finger all over her body in the bath to remove loose shed, but don't force it (it hurts them). Your beardie may just be experiencing a itchy shed.

Phew! Thank you! I thought something seriously wrong was going on! I'll give her a bath once she calms down a little, I made her really agitated when I tried picking her up... Thank you once again!!
