So for the first time ever, Nacho puffed his little beard out at me, and had his mouth open. Was going to take him out for breakfast....wasn't sure what to do, so I just grabbed him right up. He seemed to calm quickly....but should I leave him be when he does this? Kinds hurt my feelings :( he's such a sweetie usually!

It was about breakfast time. I always take him out to feed him. He really only eats salad in his viv. He's usually quite happy to see me in the morning lol maybe just having a bad day. My son and my niece have been playing with him this afternoon, and he's been a good boy. :)
