mean mean beardie

iso9k Jan 07, 2005 09:04 PM

I have a really mean girl. Has anybody gone through "taming" a hostile bearded dragon? I need to wear a glove to get her. once i have her in my hand - she will bite anything she can...and HARD too! just viscious.

I assume working daily with her will be the best bet...put hand in the tank for 10 minutes..until i can get the hand close to her without her getting scared..and slowly work my way to holding her..

just curious if they are easy to tame as such..or is a wild beardie a wild beardie.

I can't really say if yours will tame or not but I had one that was just like that... He bit me so hard that he took a chunk out of the end of my finger and I bled for like 3 hours..... He never tamed down and he was sold to a pet store so they would show him how good he had it.... lol... j/k.... I did have to get rid of him though due to the fact I have kids and didn't want thier fingers bit off...
