Has anyone experienced there beardy laying flat and moving weird? Like a robot moving... It's kinda hard to explain. She also seems like she is slapping her tail around too.
But she does this sometimes when I'm misting her outside. I feel like she is just getting pissed off and cold.
Also she hates baths I think... She seems like she is scratching her back with her back leg, and tail whips around.
She's deffinetely got a personality.
Shes weird with water.

Sounds like normal beardie behavior to be honest. They will scratch themselves like that mostly when they are in water in order to either get a shed off or they have an itch, whipping their tail around can also be a way to loosen a shed or just being feisty..
Mine will do these behaviors mostly when in their bath it's like they are enjoying themselves and playing, or to loosen shed.

You really shouldn’t mist her, they don’t absorb water through their skin and misting them can just cause bacterial or respiratory infections.
