So I'm a bit concerned that my bearded is in his hide too much and not getting all the UV he needs. He has multiple spots where he can get closer to the UV source and for the most part his body temp is always 95+ (aside from the morning).

Since this is my first reptile I am overly cautious about any behavior which seems odd to me so, again I'm sure I'm overreacting, but if he has multiple spots where he can climb to get proper UV + heat should I just assume he will automatically position himself for what he needs? Is it possible that a bearded would hide/stay on the lowest part of the cage and not recognize it isn't getting enough UV? He poops nearly everyday so his metabolism seems fine.

Thanks for your help. This site has helped me prepare so much :D

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.
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
