Zeus before his shower :) (opinions?)

[ZeusAlmighty]

Hey guys! Here is a pic of Zeus!!!

He had a little snack of some super worms before this pic. He isn't really a big fan of his mistings so I try to soothe him a bit before them. He really does not enjoy baths so I give him a misting every now and then to help him out when he sheds. Is there any way to convince them baths are ok? Or are light mistings just as effective? Thanks guys!

Joga was never a big fan of baths either. I just keep her in there anyway, while she glares at me. Lately she's seeming to tolerate it more, will drink her bathwater on occasion, and has been known to 'play' a little.

Interesting. Zeus is more of the I want to escape and run around type of guy. Haha

I would keep trying the baths, he may eventually settle down. try putting a towel down for him to stand on so he doesn't get as nervous to get out.

Alrighty good idea

[ZeusAlmighty]

And Zeus loves his mistings, just not his bath time. Lol

Have you ever thought of putting Zeus in the shower since he enjoys the misting? Both of my beardies take showers and prefer them over baths. I would not recommend showers to someone with a really young beardie, but Zeus looks to be a few years old or so.
Here is my oldest beardie taking a shower.

My babies don't really enjoy a bath yet, so I just persevere and keep them in there for 10 minutes to get them comfortable with it at an early age.

They don't seem too stressed about it, they just don't like it much.
