- Beardie name(s)
- Blaze Crusher Smith
Hi there, while this is technically about my beardie's enclosure, its more about placement in MY house lol.
I just got my first beardie 3 days ago. I was told he is 5 mth old. I had read before that they're quite social and like to watch you and be around everyone. I also read not to bother them much in the first week other than feeding, so they can destress and adjust. I really don't have a lot of placement options in my house. For now I have him in the living room which seems ultimately like the right spot. I do have 2 dogs that wrestle and play alot plus two young busy kids (4 and 8). I'm worried the four of them are potentially stressing him more than he needs in this first week of his transition. I see that he has a lot of long black oval like markings on his belly and a darkish dirty looking beard (not completely black like I saw on the one main page), which I read can be attributed to stress. He does hang out on his basking rock all day, and he has been eating a bit.
Is he more resilient than I'm giving him credit for? Or should I move him somewhere else?
