I was taking care of Handsome Jack this morning, and we maintained eye contact for several seconds. Suddenly he started making this erratic jerking movement with his head. I haven't seen that before, and he seemed just fine afterwards. However, I'm worried about the little guy. Any thoughts on why he might have done this?
 
That is just him head bobbing at you. They do this in several different situations, when attracting a mate, when defending territorty or sometiems just when they get nervous or feel threatend. Its normal behavior, dont worry.
 
that head movement is something they do in breeding .nothing to worry about mine does it to me once a week.
 
Thanks for the help. I was freaking out for a second because I thought it may have been a neurological problem.
