Thanks to everyone (except tresa) for their feedback. Luca was, at one time, housed with another beardie. I bought two of them initially because that's what the pet store recommended. It was a mistake. Luca grew twice as fast as his sister, Alex and began to dominate the area, so i had to split them up. If i were to follow Tresa's "advice" i suppose she'd want me to put them back together...but like others have said, i am in no way ready to be a nanny.



Now that he's old enough to mate, i guess he's just going through a James Dean sort of phase.



I'm going to continue to handle him (carefully of course) on a regular basis, just to show him that i bring home the bacon! Personally, i think this is all because he's been watching too much MTV. The youth of today is crazy with rebellion! One day i'll come home and find his tongue to be pierced!



Jokes aside, i'm not as worried as i was before. Reading through more of the forum shows that other people are having similar problems around this time of year with other beardies at Luca's age. I'll just hope he grows out of it.



Thanks Again,

Jon Zaremba
