How old and big is he?

around six yrs old

Hmmm. Odd. I've seen a couple babies do that but they seem to grow out of it. He is healthy otherwise? I don't think dragons judge distance the same way we do since their eyes are opposed.

if this inaccuracy of aim is a recent development, it is possible he could be developing any number of visual problems. I suggest bringing him in for a vet inspection.
