[QUOTE="Martadragon017, post: 2032789, member: 95399"] Hi all! I've had my beardie Marta for about six years now but recently I've become worried about a change in behavior during feeding. When I give her roaches, after the first few her eyes begin to water and it seems like she was trouble seeing/locating the roach. I've looked online but haven't been able to find anything about this, does anyone know why this happens and if it's a cause for concern? I've attached photos of her eye(s) when this happens, I have a video as well but I'm not sure how to upload it. Setup/care info: she lives in a 60*150cm terrarium (upgraded about a year ago from 50*100cm). She's got a basking area with a regular daylight bulb, but she doesn't bask often from what I can tell (I've lowered the wattage of the bulb in case its too hot for her but it didn't help, though she could be basking when I'm not home) and a t5 Arcadia 12% uvb tube light over about 3/4 of the tank that gets replaced relatively regularly. The basking bulb is 40cm from the highest point of the basking area and the uvb is 55cm from the terrarium floor. She eats mostly escarole with the occasional radicchio and/or lambs lettuce (it comes with the escarole in the salad mix I buy so occasionally some bits get mixed in), and every now and then I offer other things like carrot or bell pepper (though not often). She gets dubia roaches twice a week, and usually eats around 10 medium to adult sized roaches per feeding. The dubias are dusted with calcium without D3, and occasionally rep-cal herpivite multivitamins.
