I separate my beardies when i feed them and i noticed today that when i moved one to another tank and placed him down his tail was pointed up and he was shaking it. Does this mean he is scared?...if not what does it mean?
thanks

tail wagging can be excitment, anger, agression, its not a timid type behaviour, hes probably anxiously waiting his meal!

Mine does it when he sees the cricket container come out. I think its adorable, just can't contain his excitment!!
