Maybe when Spike stops being obsessed with trying to scratch thru his plexiglass to get outside to find a girlfriend, we can give training a try. My poor guy has got raging hormones bad!
She knew to use the litter box to go to the washroom. She would climb over something if I said "up". Can't remember what all else I taught her....but she understood about as many words as a dog might.
My beardie knew his name...but I didn't try more than that with him.
Had almost the same with my iguana, only he went daily for a dump in the shower. He sat free range and walked 2 floors down to reach the bathroom, after his moment he went directly back up to his basking area.
It's not hard to get a beardie to come for food. All I have to do is reach for Stinkeye's bowl and he goes nuts in anticipation. Same if I make a move toward the roach bin.
I'll give them this much—beardies are observant, but so are my chameleon and Missus tortoise, especially when it comes to food.
That bit at the end about not touching the blueberry is only because he couldn't see the blueberry from his angle. Same thing happens if Stinkeye doesn't see his bowl. Once I show him the bowl, he's all over it.
If you want a beardie, great, but please don't base it on one questionable video.
Spend some time on a beardie forum or two to get a better feel for the realities.

but I definitely would love to get one.
And don’t worry, I I did, I would spend plenty of time studying and asking you guys about anything and everything about bearded dragons.
