I got my Beardie back in July of 2018. He is 11 months old. I feed him daily, and his tank measurements are 36x18x18. I frequently check the temperatures and humidity, and buy new UVB fixtures and heat lamps every 6 months. They turn on and off every 12 hours.
Ever since I got him, he has been glass surfing/scratching at the glass. At first I thought it was just something he would grow out of, but now he does it daily and is getting more intense about it. He will go for hours straight, non-stop. I will take him out of his cage to run around 2-4 times a day, until he gets cold then i'll put him back in to warm up. The moment he warms up he wants out again.
At this point, I don't know of what to do. I cannot constantly take him in and out of his cage, and since it is high off the ground he cannot go in and out as he pleases. The noise coming from his glass surfing wakes me up early in the morning when his lamps turn on, and is very irritating to listen to throughout the day. I love him very much, but if this continues I am unsure if I will be able to keep him.
How did you guys get your beardie to stop glass surfing? Is it something they grow out of? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
