Have just noticed my male Beardie is headbanging. His head is bobbing up and down and he has gone black under the chin. Is this normal? He is 12mths old. It seems like he is trying to dominate. I have never seen him do this before.
Temps are right - and have UVB. Eating no probs on live and veg.

Is he alone ? If not keep an eye on them as one of mine have recently displayed this behaviour and has decided he's the king and another male has been the butt of this new found dominance.

Yep will keep a close watch - thanks
