lol, sorry probably not new thread worthy but I like this place better than the other one "down the street" let's say haha.
I'd like to see more traffic and posting, so sorry for the thread bombs

Y'all ever notice this? I assume this is their way of saying "please get that outta my face... I am not hungry at the moment".... OR "Where is that big blue worm treat that is so so so juicy I get once a month?!?"

But y'all notice this behavior?

Absolutely normal, they have a 3rd eye right above their nose so when something comes at them in that area they will naturally close their eyes however, I've found that if I come at them straight on they'll still close their eyes so in this veteran beardie owners eyes they're saying "I'm full mom/dad" lol, my oldest is 10 yrs old

Yeah it's so crazy how they all do that no thank you I'm full, eye close. Dexter is funny, sometimes if I ignore her when she does this, she turns her body away from me and gives me this look like I just tried to give her poison :p
