Dexter will only ever drink from her bath, so she gets a daily dip followed by a beardie towel burrito (when her majesty allows it!)
She made me fall about laughing today.
I bathe her in a large casserole dish, she usually sits suspiciously eyeing the water for a while then goes in for a long long drink.
Today as she was raising her head from the water bowl she slipped (missing front claw so shes a clumsy monster) creating a big wave in the dish.
When the wave came back it splashed her nose and she FREAKED out. She had the expression of "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? DUDE THE WATER FRICKIN MOVED!!!!!" and tried to scrabble backwards out of the bowl. Then splashing herself again.
Giggling madly I got her out and put her on her towel. She took one look at me and puffed her beard (her first ever beard puff at me!!!) looked at me with distain and slowly climbed back into her tank.
5 minutes later she let me know that she was still unimpressed with me by climbing onto her basking rock and launching herself onto her hide (its made out of flexi plant branches). Crushing it.
She then sat there with a huge air of smugness!
She is such a minx!!!
Dw. She seems to have forgiven me now. The royal beardie allowed me to handfeed her some treats later!
