when my male head bobbs at my female these last couple day she lowers her head to the ground and raises her bum in the air by extending her back legs and sort of walks a couple steps then stops. can anyone tell me what she means by this?

So now I have the same question and I hope somebody knows what this means. I have a picture of this and she's looking like a kangaroo

I dont really know, but I would guess that it's a mating thing. Maybe she's signaling him that she's ready or something.

Mine does that when I put him in front of a mirror. He'll walk like that, then stop to head bob, then do that some more. It has to be a mating/territorial thing, makes them look bigger & scarier, or even more attractive to other dragons I guess.
