So Venus, my female beardie has always been quite the active one but it's getting to the point where it's pretty annoying.
She's glass surfing, head bobbing, occasionally arm waving, and just running around a lot.
At first I figured it was because my male, Saturn would occasionally be up rather than tucked away in his hide. And when he was up he was displaying mating signs, which she would always react back with arm waving and a slow sort of head bob.
(They never came in contact with each other, they could only see each other)
That went on for about a week before he went back to burmating, and then for the past three weeks she's just been super active and it's getting quite annoying.
I've tried blocking her view of everyone thinking that would solve it but it's seems to not have worked that well.
With the blankets not covering the glass she can see my BTS, two of my beardies and possibly my tegu, I would say she can see my leopard gecko but she only comes out once the lights are off because of her sensitive eyes.
I even thought it may be eggs so I prepared a lay box for her and left it in there for about a week and a half but she showed no interest in it. She's also not digging at all just running around, head bobbing and generally being a bit too active for my liking.
Any idea what I can do to get her to stop, or at least calm down just a tiny bit.
I already let her out twice a day for about 30 minutes to an hour as she refuses to go in her enclosure so she has quite a bit of outside the tank time.
A somewhat short video of what she's pretty much doing right now. And as I type this she's at it again and trying to climb up the glass.

Also reason why her tank is a bit of a mess and doesn't have paper towels is I was in the process of cleaning everything and didnt get to put some paper towels down again yet.
