Taz (he's almost 5 months old now) prefers to sleep on the floor...actually under his paper towels (he gets mad if he can't get under them lol). How cool are your night temps though?

LOL, I know...he got so mad one night he actually started to black beard (he's done this once before because he got mad at me). It's gotten to the point where I just try to leave a corner of his paper towels up a little bit so he doesn't have to try so hard lol.Kaitlyn55":aade2 said:
Hi Mike,mdt248":aade2 said:A friend wrote me back and said it is normal. She is a wealth of knowledge. Even said she puts little "blankets" in for her beardies. "They're just puppies with scales".I'm going to give it a try. I'll let you know.

I totally agree. The other morning I found Kaira had attempted to do it also, which she never has before. I've thought about putting some sort of "cave" in at night for Taz, though. We can't use blankets...he's still battling coccidia, so paper towels and non-porous stuff only. I'm sure your little guy will love that though!

Mike,
Coccidia is a parasite that is in their digestive tracts naturally, but when the numbers get out of control they can cause problems. I have to get my two to bed, but if you send me a PM I can tell you more or you can find some info on
http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.com/home.html
or here, specifically
http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.com/Parasites.html
or you can search the site, just type in "coccidia" or "parasites" (something to that sort and you'll find a bunch of threads). I can tell you specifically about our experiences with coccidia, if you'd like, too. My two are just up a little too late because of a spider scare lol. I'll be back on in a little while though.
Don't worry, though. It's a common thing & our two are fine now.
Oh, and thank you! Their quite a handful lol.
