Does your beardie hang out in odd places ? Does it have a common sleep schedule or does it randomly decide its morning or night at times you were suprised by? Or perhaps it used to bask all the time on the basking spot you researched your butt off to get to the perfect temperature and once it hit a certain season and/ or turned a certain age or weight it chose a different spot that's got you scratching your head and monitoring the temps . All the while wondering why it suddenly likes a cooler or hotter hang out spot. Does it turn up it's nose at veggies all day but when you hand feed at a certain time, age or season it will gladly chow on them? Does it only glass surf at certain times of the day due to natural light and then watch you intently at others? Will it only accept a stubborn amount of food before returning to basking or even require the food in a certain way? These examples and any other interesting behavior you have witnessed are exactly the kind of information about their in envlosure behavior im looking for to help my general thirst for knowledge and( this is why it's in the enclosure thread) to help me evaluate how exactly I want to build my upgraded enclosure to suit my beardies needs throughout his lifespan, seasons and growth. I'd love to read any input you have on why u believe ur beardie acts this way or what may have influenced it's changed or odd behavior.

For an example i noticed my little guy(?) RD loves to bask in the morning but if his eyes are shaded from the light he may decide to sleep till noon :roll: so i make sure to uncover him . I offer veggies about 15 mins after he has started to bask but he shows no interest even when I try to show him them again after 30 mins :roll:
he will make his own way down from his basking spot and wait around near his bug bowl for his bugs ( usually dubia roaches) he used to eat like 4 -6 when he was around 6 months old when i got him. Now at about 9 or 10 months old ,within 15 mins of him waiting if I don't feed him fresh out of the colony well dusted bugs he may just glance at them and turn his head sidways to stare me down as if saying" your late ! What do you want me to do with those ? " he then stubbornly sits on his water dish eyeing the outside world with a glare full of suspicion :?
Sometimes I'll come home early or midday and 1 bug will have disappeared (hopefully into his tummy :blob5: ). He will eat 1 or 2 a day ( that im able to witness) but sometimes it's every other day , this started about a month ago and doesn't seem to be effecting his growth ,energy or bowel movements . Ive also noticed him spending a ton of time almost in and around his water dish that is on the cooler side of his tank :?: he seems to never shed much although i have to clean his h2o constantly so he seems to be attempting to give himself baths like I give him weekly. Since he is a rankins dragon (pogona henrylawsoni / black soil beardie/ shaved beardie/ prairie dragon/ pygmy or dwarf dragon/ pogona brevis/ way to many names smaller beardless cousin of the beardie ) that seems to explain his love of water but does it explain his love of lower temps ? Like around 75 to 82

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
