Generally, you will be able to tell when a beardie is happy. They will be moving around, perking up when you walk in, sometimes, as I’ve noticed, they will have their tail sort of in the air. They will be eating regularly and will take food whenever they are hungry. There will be no stress marks, which are oval-shaped patterns on their stomach they develop when stressed. If your beardie is stressed, it might have something to do with its living conditions, or if there is another beardie in the tank. NEVER house more than one beardie together with another. It is a big stressor for them as they feel more confined to a smaller area. If problems are serious, I would suggest posting on the Beardie ER page and visiting your local vet. During brumation, they will sleep more and not move around for a few months, but still check for stress marks and give them a bath once or twice a week.
