Ive tried that, Goonie. I put him back on his lack, towards the back of the cage, etc and he just goes right back. I've tried covering the glass too and it just doesn't do anything. He still rams the glass :( He is almost 3 years old. I am moving into my own place soon, and his tank will most...

Anyone?

Trust me, I have done that multiple times. I've taken him to the window for an hour (his favorite place), out to run on the floor, on my bed, for a bath, to eat, etc. It doesn't matter. The second I put him back in there (no matter the length of time he's been out) he is right back at it.

Hey all! Long time no see. Charlie is driving me NUTSSSSS!!! I have a wood tank with plastic sliding doors in the front. Charlie has been glass dancing non-stop for the past 2 weeks. And he does it at a very particular time. No matter what time he is woken up, the second I walk in the door from...

Your beardie is 5 months old? She shouldn't be brumating yet :|

Hi! Charlie is 2 1/2 years old and weighs around 555 grams. He isn't losing weight. He's been trying to sleep/hide from his basking light for about a month or two now. He always goes beneath his blanket and closes his eyes as if he were trying to sleep. I'm using repti-sun uvb 10.0 tube and it's...

I've read through the brumation article on here and manyyyyy thread posts about it. However, I still have some questions. 1) Charlie's been acting like he wants to brumate for over a month now. I made him a hidey thing and after a final poop, I put him in there and turned his lights off. I...

Charlie is a male, 2 1/2 years old, 21 1/2 inches, and about 550 grams.

Thanks. Anyone else?

Charlie is about to brumate, and I just thought of something! Are they supposed to get their vits and calcium somehow still? Since they won't be eating how do they get them?

If it were me, I would throw it out immediately. Go with your gut on this one. If you've heard horror stories and it has an offending smell, then it probably isn't safe for your animal :/ Just my opinion.

No, she is MUCH too young to be brumating.

Nope, he forgave me! He gave me kisses and cuddles this morning like normal. I did give him some extra dubias as an "i'm sorry" though :p

Thanks. I checked it this morning and everything looks normal, so far so good.

By the way, thank you for the advice and quick reply. You made me feel a little better :)
