I've had my beardie for two days and whenever I change his water he opens his mouth and tries to bite me if I get too close to him . Is that normal?? Please be honest!

Yep he's just getting used to you, and he's probably stressed from being in a new home. Try picking him up, but make sure you bring your hand towards him slowly and from the front or side. Beardies see things coming from above as predators. Once you have him in your hands he might realize you're not a threat, and from there you can give him a warm bath to relax him. Just make yourself known to him for a few days and he'll come around.

I'm going to clean out his tank today, he pooped a lot over the past two days. I'll give him a bath too! I cradled him while I talked with my mom and he seemed calm, so I'm happy. Thanks for the tip!
