hi my bearded dragon is really hyper and loves having a run about but i'm not confident about him running round my room because he might get hurt so i was thinking about making a enclosure for him using some card stock i got in my garage is it safe to use it or could he get diseases ???

As you may or may not be able to see, it is just some borads carefully placed in my laundry room. Not fancy,but it let's him be out of the viv unsupervised. The sun shines in the window above the chair, so that gives him a nice sunspot. I can leave him in there while I do errands or chores and he can get some exercise

Use something slick Randy, that he can't grip with his claws. Somebody previously mentioned that laminated "pressed wood" from an old desk. Really, that laminate should be too slick to climb. But after your recent experience, I can't blAme you for worrying. You might put a harness on Franklin and. Let him drag the leash behind so you can find him. That's what I did before the play yard. Can't tell you how many times I found the leash stickingout from behind the refridgerator!

I just meant that they weren't very high. He seems to be able to stand about 8-10 inches on his hind legs and has pulled off some prettty crazy jumps using his front legs to pull himself up.

Lizzy is older and not a jumper, or even really a climber. I think he had some MBD from his old owner. They often fed lettuce as a veggie staple, and I dont think his UVB got changed often if ever. But he does like to walk and do some minor climbing ( like on the shoes), and he's not real fast. He's kind of my speed.
