Wow!, the first 65 degree and sunny day here in Chicago and my beardies are going CRAZY!!, they are scratching their cages, wanting outside and messing up their cages. Anyone else experiencing this SPRING behavior change?
Yep mine too he has been doing much of the same. Mine is in a 55 gallon and i hopefully can get him a new cage built this summer. When they scratch it makes me want to get it done right away but time is hard to come by.
55 gallon is pretty big though? I feel really bad when mine scratches. No matter what I am doing, I feel like I have to take her out. Spring is in the air !
Same here in Wisconsin. Spike just seemed to know it was nice this past weekend...always scratching with his little "let me out pwwwwwweeeeeeesssssssseeeeeeeeee" look lol.
We are finally having great weather, clear sky's and in the 70's and Loki was going nuts today. From jumping off his perch and face planting the glass, scratching it, running laps in the cage, and if I do not take him out he will just keep biting decorations and head but the glass. I tried cleaning his cage, but he is still going crazy.
He does not show any stress marks, but he won't stay still. Most of the time he spends the day watching me on top of the basking area except for today.
That is so weird because my Tomek is doing the SAME THING. She is going to get a sore nose from her banging on the glass. It has been unusually warm weather here (early spring) and she is GOING NUTS!, she doesnt want to go to bed and is jittery and up at 10:00pm scratching. I do have a cage outside for her and put her out there to get some sun, but, she wants to stay out there all day and night.
I am wondering if this is what is happening to Zelda. She has been crazy trying to get out of her viv for a week now noatter how much I take her out and stopped eating 3 days ago...
