Severely Aggressive Beardy
I have a sub-adult female bearded dragon. Since i got her she's been overly aggresive. To my knowledge this isnt a common trait in beardys and i'm worried for my little girl. I'm wondering why she is acting this way and if theres something i could do to improve her behaviour.

I also have a subadult female who's extremely aggressive, and has been since the day we got her...I've heard of beardie females being high-strung and aggressive because they were imcubated at too high a temperature, and therefore referred to as 'hots'. 'Hots' are reputedly ill-tempered, agressive and infertile. However, it's entirely possible that this is just unfounded speculation, and totally unproven. Out of curiousity, does this female seem to have a problem with growth? Of course, it could just be that beardies are like people...some are just jerks!

They other idicator for me is the fact that this little girl of mine doesn't act submissive around adult males, like my other girl does. No arm waving or bowing or anything...she just doesn't react to his courtship type deal.

Yeah, normally beardies are so chill, I was surprised when we got her and she continued to be a psycho bytch. I think the 'Hot' thing is likely, which completely sucks, cuz they don't make great pets, AND can't breed. But, y'know what? Don't get disheartened, that's only a possibilty, and it's not even a proven syndrome (if that's what it would be called) Anyway, hopefully someone with a bit more knowledge can help you out (I've only kept beardies for a little under two years...)
