Lazy bearded dragon.

Hello, my bearded dragon beaker has been lazy recently. He usually just sits under his uvb lamp all day now still has bright colors. And i am thinking he is going through another growth spurt as he is growing quite a bit weekly he will run over to his food dish to tell me he is hungry. And is eating a lot more than usual.

Thanks

Its good he has good color -- what are you using for a UVB? coil or a tube? And hes eating as well -- good sign --- sounds like hes being lazy but I wanted to double check the UVB your using -

I got a reptisun 10.0 for his uvb his temps are 100-110 for his basking side and 80-85 for his cool side. I measure with a temp gun.

The T 8 needs to be inside the tank if it is not -- the plastic cover needs to be off leaving the bulb exposed and decor piece needs to be 6-8 inches under it -- if all that is correct your dragon is having his lazy days -- if not I would get it corrected and watch his behavior then --

Yeah, he has it beneath the screen and without a cover.

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.
