Check out beautifuldragons.com for General care and behavior info but for the most part:



Head bobbing is used to show that they are boss or to determine dominace.



Arm waving is a sign of submission.



I have read some where of a guy that would take his fist to represent a dragon head, and would talk to bearded dragons. When he bobbed his fist they responed with head bobbing, when he slowly rotated his thumb in a cirular motion it represented submission and they would calm down.



I have not tried this but you might want to try it the next time he gets all worked up.



When I first got mine they wanted nothing to do with me, they would flaten them selves out or freeze when I walked by. But I would just sit there and watch them eat or hang out with them, for about ahour or so a day. After a few days they didn't freak out as much when I went near them. They just need to get used to you first. I would suggest putting them in an area that they can see you the most.



Good luck.
