Hey everyone, I made a previous post on this discussion board about my bearded dragon Falcor. I thought, and have been recommended to take him outside for some natural sunlight. However, it seems like he either has a seizure while he’s outside, it soon after I take him back inside...any idea why the sun would be causing these episodes? Thanks!

That seems odd. I don't know why the sun would cause it. It's possible that there is an overwhelming amount of input outside and that could be related. Do you see the same behavior if you give him time in a window sill to look outside?

Hello,

Did he get too hot sitting out in the sunshine?
I haven't heard of that happening but as suggested, he possibly could have been
overstimulated perhaps & gotten excess muscle twitches perhaps.
How is he doing today?

I can't think of a time when he ever has by the window...I thought that he mught just be overstimulated as well...it's hard to say.

That's what I was wonder too...overstimulation might be the cause as well, but I will still be giving him the calcium you sent me.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
