Ok, even my vet thinks this is weird. My 2 yr old male BD hates going outside. He HATES it. He gets really upset and doesn't let anyone go near him if you bring him outside. I've been trying to get him to enjoy it for a long time. ANyone else have a strange dragon?

Then again, I've never known a dragon so "emotional" about things in my life. He gets angry if you pay attention to my female and not him. He displays this angry by giving you really nasty looks and bobbing at you. He doens't like strangers, and he'll climb into my arms for protection. He's exceptionally uncomfortable in public unless my female dragon is with him. Seriously, I think he's jsut a big momma's boy wimp.

For my beardie, I think it has something to do with the birds. Birds are natural predators of beardies in the wild. So it makes since for them to be scared of birds or even with going outside if they saw a bird once.

Then again, beardies are pretty sharp. He may think you are trying to take him to the vet or something. Who knows. Sorry to hear that your beardies is such a momma's boy. LOL That's hilarious! I can't believe he climbs into your arms like that. I've always said that beardies have the most personality of any reptile out there. This just proves it!
