I have a 3 and a half year old bearded dragon.
today I put his water bowl in his cage and he started to drink the water.
After he finished drinking I offered him some crickets, when he put his tounge out to get the cricket all this salivary water came out of his mouth. This happend about 4 times before the water stops coming out.

Is this just because he didnt swallow the water?

I'm a bit confused by what you mean - did the water just come back out of his mouth? I'm not really sure, as our dragons always swallow any water they drink, but it sounds like he just didn't swallow. Are you concerned for any other reason - is he eating properly, behaving normally, etc?

the water came back out of his mouth about 5 minutes after he drank it, when I gave him some crickets.

He is eating the same and acting the same maybe he just didnt swallow the water.

He could of stored the water in his beard like they do when they eat alot of crickets. Mine have done this before with no problems.

I have a couple of dragons that will drink and hold it like that sometimes too. The first time it happened I was a bit worried. But like Marsha there have never been any problems.

thanks for all your help guys
