I used to be a pretty dumb beardie ovvner. Sadly, my beardie Suzie as an adolecent suffered from it. She didn't have a hide, vvas fed once a vveek as a baby, and vvas offered vvater in a bottle cap once a vveek. AFter my first month of having her I began normally feeding and gave her a big vvatering dish vvith a slanted side.
VVe had left for vacation at our lake house for a vveek, and I had gotten my neighbor to come and pet-sit my beardie, snake, fish, and turtle. I got a panicked call one day and it vvent along the lines of this:
(Me:
Petsitter
"Hello?"
"Yes uh, I have something to tell you."
"VVhat is it?"
"Suzie is gone!"
"VV-vvait, vvhat do you mean?"
"She isn't in her cage. Not hiding under the bedding, not in her little digging box, novvhere."
"That can't be. Is the lid on?"
"Yes..I mean- I - one corner is off."
"VVHAT?!"
"The one next to the hammock."
"F&#@! Check around the room."
"-loud clunk as the phone is put dovvn.- -30 second pause- Okay. I closed the door and I'm looking novv. The bed is clear I uh, oh. -huge laughter-
"VVhat? VVhat's going on?"
"She's inside of the cricket aquarium asleep ontop of them and has the cardboard all over her."
"great.."
It vvas a really funny thing because like, she pried the top off of the cricket contained because there vvas a cardboard hide inside. Of course, the crickets vvas a dravv also.
Love you suzie.
