Cant sleep. Worrying.

Yes. If red lights are used, it is best to position the beardie where he can't see the light/ where it's not shining right on his face. Some beardies are also more sensitive to lights than others.

Maybe its bc he always snuggles up in his blanket so usually his eyes aren't exposed?

That would be why... :wink:

Is it typical for them to like a blanket?

Yes, they all use them in the wild.

Just depends. Sometimes Lilly does, sometimes she doesn't. I would say that a lot of them do, though. I wrap Lilly up like a baby, and most nights she stays like that, occasionally she climbs out if she doesn't want to be there.

Steve, do you really want my lecture about how they are not in the wild and thus their behavior is very different :lol: ?

I didn't make Pablo a blanket until I found this wonderful website and saw other people making beardie burritos. If I don't put him in his blanket at night time I get the stink eye from him when I walk past his tank- ha must admit, I'm an official beardie slave.

Let me say, Lilly's "blankets" are old pajama shirts that have been washed a million times and are nice and soft. I plan to make her a blanket of her own over break, but I doubt it will happen :lol:

Well, it looks like Sierra will be trying something different...altho today I pulled out the loose substrate and laid some paper towel. Sierra still isn't too sure about so the blanket might be good until I get some tiling
