I'm really curious of why my beardie doesn't like water. Of course he drinks it but when its time to take him a bath he tries to swim out and sometimes right when im about to put him in the water he will go crazy. :| Is this something about his personality?

Some of them don't like water. It's a personality thing and varies quite a bit between each of them. If they don't like water, don't force baths. The stress isn't worth it, and that's OK. Offer water by dripping some on their nose to lick up. Otherwise they don't really need to be cleaned/bathed unless they become soiled.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
