Stop running and hissing !!!!

mandie Nov 01, 2003 09:33 PM

Our little devil "Ox" is 8 weeks old. About 8 inches long and eats everything. Whenever we try to get him out of his cage he runs like a wild man and will open his mouth and sometimes hisses at us. What can we do to stop this? Is this normal for his age??

there you can see how you can handle a beardie.
some take special care and can freak out very fast.
scope them up from the front and let him sit on youre hand in the cage so he get used by you hands.
crabbing from above let him think a eagle is hunting for him.
go so low as posibal.
