Hi everyone!
I adopted my daughter's two(?) year old sulcata a few months ago, and I have been carrying him in my hands back and forth from his indoor enclosure to the outside yard. I noticed that when I carry him facing out he struggles more, and when I carry him facing me he stretches out his head towards me and does a lot of head bobbing. Is this an agressive or social gesture in this context? Is he afraid? Should I be putting him in a box or something for this short distance?
Thanks in advance for your advice!
