I did take the very tip where it was sharp off and I had no problems. With any 'pet' out there a great amount of respect has to go towards the fact that they are all or have all at one point been wild and they all will turn to their genetic making at some point but if you go into owning a pet thinking other wise we are sadly mistaken. Just like a dog will resort to being a pack animal with an alfa so will a bearded dragon bop to attract or intimidate other beardies. You get out what you put in, I have chosen to handle my beardie that is definitely not for everyone but it works in my family and if down the road I research and make the right choice for my family and get a dog I will surely train it to be part of the family and feel that animal will give us in return what it has received. Not everyone has the same view point and there are some people on the total other end of the spectrum who feel it is cruelty to feed live food to pets, are they right??? I don't know but I do know my beardie will not go with out crickets.
