Perspective

Bearded Dragons are not very maternal or paternal creatures. Generally, once the female dragon lays her eggs, the unborn hatch-lings are left to fend for themselves. Dragons have also been known to consume their little ones. Knowing this, we haven't allowed our adults dragons within harms way of the babies. However, today, we did allow our male dragon to see the babies in their tank. He didn't act weird at all. No drooling over the small little morsels or fighting to get to them. I snapped a picture to show the size difference. It's so weird thinking that Twiggy(adult male) is only a year old, and when we purchased him, he was just as tiny as his babies. 

Twiggy is standing behind the tank unable to get to the babies.
