I've had three Beardies in my life and never been bit until now. D-man is very skittish and hyper and not easy to handle. My first, Slayer would sleep on me from the day we brought her home. My second was pretty tame as well.
However, D-man has got me twice already. He's still really young (six months) so I'm still getting him used to me and handling him and the bite didn't hurt too bad.
It just kind of saddens me and alarms me because my girls want to handle him also but I don't want them to be bitten. I googled and I don't think I should have because the images that came up with it scared me a bit. Nasty looking bites and infections that I didn't think could occur from them.
