Default Young male CWD - He's angry - pic heavy

This guys never liked me, and no matter what I do he dislikes me even more, and I've had him like 8 months (I think).Nevermind, he's a lovely looking fella.

"I will kill you"

Frozen in fear...



Originally I was just trying to get him to move so I could put fresh soil in and change his water...He was extra fiesty that day, never usually bites but as you will see in the Youtube video I will upload some time he was going for it!He goes nuts whenever I pick him up, so I haven't done it in months.At least I have 1 completely tame and another 'getting there'

what makes you sure its a male? its about the same size as my 3, all of which look exactly the same and the chances of all 3 being male is slim. the orange armpits, pink throat and slightly raising neck crest can still end up female yet IMO.

ive got an angry one as well though. not as angry as yours, its headbutted my a couple of times, and puffs its throat regularly. ive also got a mental escape artist that innocently sits there watching me clean them up, then makes a 1000mph run for the door when im least expecting it, and if it gets caught (which it almost always does before it gets past the door) proceeds to go mental around the viv forcing me to just shut it in and come back later lol. i have one sane one which just acts normal, sits there quietly, and is semi-handleable without simply running away. it will probably transpire that the easy going one is female and the other 2 are competing males. time will tell, theyll be seperated within the next month though so that might calm them down.

yes my male has much more profound joules than that little one. and my female has orange arm pits which is why i was told she was male until she laid eggs. i got her when she was about 7 and as soon as i saw her i thought she didnt look anything like the males i'd seen of the same age. some people just say anything i think. but i've not had a problem with any aggression like that before! looks well mad lol!! but i do have 1 retarded lizard that can't really see very well. i rescued him and he'd not had any UV until i got him and this has caused a little neurological damage poor guy. he's a healthy happy lizard tho and has gorgeous red colours under his chin, so pretty

Lol, cool.I have a male who is dog tame.
He's only just started changing, his crest and spikes getting noticeably bigger - such a change in a short time indicates male to me, and his very prominent pores, but it may still be a female yet!

That is one thing he hasn't got yet, larger jowls, but he's still quite small.In the video (will try and upload tonight) you will see, when my finger is in front of him, that he went for it!
