when i put my dragons outside they seem to get real angry and puff up and open there mouth. why is this? they try to bite me and they wont sit still. is this because they arent used to being in an outside enclouser? any help would be good.

Some of mine are stressed in my outside cage and hide.

it is because they are afraid, if you grew up in a cage all your life then were exposed to the big bad world you would be afraid too, ive seen it in many animals, even my savanah, he would try to hide under bushes when taken outside, if you want to take them out try to give them some sort if small cover to hide under and let them come out when they are ready, this may help withthe stress level, it help when we moved the savanah to an outdoor cage to give him a hide, he eventually did explore in time.
