Hello! My boyfriend recently bought a beardie from a pet store and he’s been doing fairly well until about an hour ago. We got him a net and a better hide since he liked real rocks and wood more than the plastic stuff and decided to rearrange his tank to switch out the plastic hut for the half wood log and just hung a little net near his favorite piece of cork wood. Usually he’s not this stressed out by us rearranging things or putting our hands in the tank but tonight he actually turned VERY dark underneath so we came to this site to research into why that might be. Everything we’ve read about them turning black all over or turning totally black in a specific spot but none of the articles, photos, or forum posts or comments have shown the leopard spots or given us an explanation for why his underside looks like it has black leopard spots and tiger stripes. He eats very well, is pretty active, hunts for his food very well, and has never gotten spots this dark before or has had them for this long. Any suggestions as to why this might be happening would be greatly appreciated!
