So we got our beardie back in July and she is going on two years old. She has been an angel ever since we got her, but ever since we moved houses she has been getting more and more stressed over her reflection. She never did this before, so we thought it was the stress of the move and hoped that things would go back to normal. It’s been a month and things have been getting worse. All day from the moment she wakes up to the moment she goes to sleep she is running wild in her tank, glass surfing constantly, bobbing her head, and just going nuts. We got a background for her tank and put in on the inside, so there is absolutely no reflection there and just recently we put up pads to cover one of the sides of her tank. We don’t want to cover more up because we want to leave her with some visibility. But even this hadn’t helped. She scratches at the background like she’s trying to dig under it and she does the same with the pad we put up. I am constantly applying tape to keep it up because she just pulls it down. We don’t know what else to do or if it will even help. When we are home we try to take her out and let her roam around so she’s not going crazy in that tank, but we have a cat so we can’t do it for long periods of time (we keep them in separate rooms). It’s like even if she can’t see it she thinks another beardie is still there. We don’t know what else to do, PLEASE HELP!!!
PS she’s in a 40 breeder so it’s not like shes cramped in there either.
