My 6 month old male beardie sparky has been going full body dark on and off today, black beard and head bobbing. And also puffing out his beard whenever he sees me today. He's more active than normal too. Heat and lighting are all correct. Any one have any ideas on why he's started acting differently?

Many thanks

Sounds a bit like he’s being territorial and hormonal ... he may be seeing a reflection in the glass of himself thinking he’s another dragon ... dies he let you pick him up to take him out ??

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
