question about reflection...

lele Apr 27, 2005 04:14 PM

...Darwin does not seem to respond to his reflection in the glass until he is hunting his food. Then he will suddenly stop and look to his reflection. No headbobbing or anything but he does seem to be thrown off task and stops hunting. He has white wall along back and one side, the other is open to a stairwell. How do you all lessen the reflection?

thanks,
lele

Is he a young dragon? When my beardies were younger they would do the same thing but they would eventually get over it. They just have to get us to the reflection.

Yes, just over 2 months - that is good to know. With chameleons they gape, hiss and get stressed. I am finding these two creatures to be 180 degree opposites in everything!

thanks!
