Constant Glass Surfing

[BenjiandRose]

So I have two beardies(Rose and Benji) who are about 3(maybe closer to 4) and 6 months respectively. Benji has been a little antsy ever since we got him from PetSmart(he even tried to run from the employee that removed him from the enclosure), but we haven't have TOO many problems out of him in general. Until now that is. As of late ive been buried in homework and I haven't had a ton of time to spend with my beardies, but I always sit in front of their cage when I'm reading, writing, etc. About two weeks ago I noticed that they were glass surfing a lot more than usual, and I figured it was the lack of decor(not having much to do when I'm not holding or playing with them), so I added more. The cage has a lot more stuff in it now, and I thought it would help but their glass surfing has continued(Rose does it the most). It's to the point of irritation some days when I just want to relax. Really looking for some help and I can provide additional info if needed. Thanks in advance!



PS: I use NAT Geo's 3-d background and it IS very reflective and I have acknowledged that but I think it goes beyond that. Also, Rose is Female and Benji is Male

Hi, We have finally put two and two together that when our beardie surfs his glass, it is because he has to poop. He does not like pooping in his tank.

I wish my problem was that simple. Benjis getting darker stress marks and they're still glass surfing like crazy!
