Cori is always on my shoulder. The more you handle your beardie and the more they get to know and trust yopu the more calm they will be. Try placing your beardie on your chest with your hands ready to catch if he should run/jump. Then walk around a bit. after a while of doing this and your beardie getting used to you walking around with him on you he will rest comfortable on your chest, shoulder, side of your neck, and occasionally on your head. Haha. Mine is almost always on me. I go everywhere with him. Good luck and definately let me know how it works out!
