Anyone else got a beardie who wakes up about 1am and wants to watch tv or come out for snuggles ?
Toothless recently (in the last few weeks - with the change of season) has returned to his night owl habits from when he was a very little hatchling when he often woke up to midnight raid on the greens and any crickets he missed during the day would be found nibbling on the greens so he'd snack on them (very noisy in a quiet of night with the tv turned down and lights mostly out (only light coming from the laptop and tv screens).
He wakes up with the birds / first light about 4am , and the lights are on 6am and he's nearly always found on his basking spot ready for the lights and wide awake.
He'll stay up til about 3pm , diner time for him and Peppa and the BTs, and will demand a bit of floor fun time (two speeds , warp 10 trot with tail in air like an antenna , and stop , planning his next move and looking for new mischief).The basking for an hour or 90min and he's off to bed.
Tonight is typical, only lights are my laptop on the coffee table and the TV and despite the tv being "muted" , I use a wireless headset to listen at night so my wife isn't disturbed by my night owl ruitine, he's been awake since about 1am and he'll stay on in bed bit peaking out watching me and the TV or the movies on the laptop til I go to bed.
He also has a very active brain when asleep , he often twitches toes, the tail, changes position , sleep crawls.... yes dreaming , his eyes will be closed while this happens.
There I was thinking he had grown out of this over 12 months ago, he's now about 22 months old ....
always expect the unexpected when it comes to complicated mega spoilt critters with smarts who get a lot of mental stimulation like pet skinks and dragons.
I'm sure he's not the only nocturnal beardie around.
