I was watching my beardie while she was basking and saw her do something kind of strange-
she puffed her beard up in and out rapidly about 4 times, once per second, then inflated herself like they do in water for another four seconds. she then deflated and kept her beard out for another four seconds. (end weird phase) then she held her mouth open while basking. She didn't seem to be reacting to anything or to be upset, it kind of just looked like she was stretching.
what is the purpose of this behavior?
