hey muzza, you need to be dusting with a calcium powder aswell , nutrabol is a mulitvitamin powder so should only be given once a week for young beardies, you should dust with calcium powder such as calypso 5 days a week for young beardies. IF you have only been giving your beardie nutrabol he could have early stages of MBD which would mean being handled would be painful hence the bad mood, get some calcium powder asap you can get it off ebay. Also give us a more detailed description of your setup plz.
