My guy does it when he does not like what he is served to eat and has to eat it under protest. He uses his tail to send his bowl across the tank as his sign of total disgust for his menu choice.

I think he hates 90's dance music lol he trashed his food and water and rolled his log around. Then he turned black and headbobbed. I changed the music and he chilled lol he's a critic

All the time! My boy tears his tank apart when he can't get what he wants. My oldest girl, stomps around her tank when she gets mad at me and my youngest girl just goes in her hide for a few days when she doesn't get her way.

I can tell when my girl have asked to come out and I have not been home to see, all her greens will be spread across the cage, the pillow she have on top of her basking spot will be either in her cave, or on the other side of the cage. She even sometimes manages to dislodge the smaller rocks in her basking tower. She is quick to forgiveness though, and comes out from hiding with a hopeful look when she notices I am home.

I have a good friend here that her youngest dragon Kobi he will be super grumpy and we couldn't figure out why he was angry and his body would be kinda dark... I would go over there and check temps with my IR gun all good, I tried everything I could think of to make him happy, tried a bath...so we decided to sit on the couch and talked..We turned the TV on and cartoons came on and I happened to look over at Kobi and he jumped off his log and went nose to the tank front and lightened up.. as my friend changed the channel I said "wait a min turn it back" so she did and I told her to look at Kobi and sure enough he was watching the cartoons!!! I stood in front of him and he cocked his head looking up at me like he was telling to MOVE it lol so inched over and you could tell when he could see the tv again!!!
So we now know that he LOVES cartoons!!! and it wasn't an isolated thing either! we went shopping 1 day and came back to a very very grumpy dragon and I said well yea they didn't turn the tv on for Kobi!! LOL we did and his entire demeanor changed..
