so my 4 month old beardie Jah is completely normal and healthy, he’s alert, he walks around and eats and poops normally. but i was just wondering if its normal for him to exhale out his mouth (usually while he’s in the sun but while out too), it looks like he inhales deep and i can see the breath in his throat and then he exhales it out of his mouth. he’s never stressed or sleeping (i think) when this happens. he never gapes aside from when he’s basking, and this is the only thing i’ve seen that im not sure about. he has no mucus coming from his nose or eyes. like he looks and acts completely healthy. is he just regulating his body temperature when he does this? help

Try to get a video so we can see what he is doing. It's best to upload it to YouTube and post the link here.

I
here is a video.
I'm not sure exactly what he is doing there. I agree it looks kind of weird.
I apologize for the slow reply, somehow I missed the video when you posted it.

Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
cookie event at my library today, quite fun! Made some bracelets for my comrades too, to give them at church in the morning. Got a busy day tomorrow even though I’m off work… i go back on tuesday so atleast I’ll have 2 days off to rewind….then back to hell lol
The head tilt tho! Aaaahhh
