I recieved a dragon 6 weeks ago, when I first take her out of her enclosure she poops on me, is this normal? she is eating properly and behaving normal. Thanks

My WD did that to me for a while, I just considered it defense/nervousness. As she (I assume) became more accustomed to me and I learned how to handle her better she did it less often. (Also with my bearded dragon, we learned very quickly that we should wait for her to go before taking her out, otherwise you are doing so at your own risk. She's pretty smart and would much rather hold it in for a while (even days) and take a big ol crap on the couch, then do it in her tank and have to be that close to it all day)

Thanks for your help, I am only experienced in bearded dragon behaviour, water dragons are still new to me.
