Leatherback Beardie: Rico 5 y/o Tangerine AFT: Toothless 1 y/o
So last night im doing my usual before bed things that i do every night. For context my bearded dragon is on a rack system with my fat tail geckos cage above him. So I go to spray my fat tails humid hide like i do everynight because the humidity has dropped a little bit and i grab my sprayer and get on my step stool and my bearded dragon rico absolutely lost his mind. I dont know if the weather had anything to do with it (it was extremely windy all day) but Im just confused because I do this everynight before I go to bed and hes never done this before. His beard was black so I know he was stressed out but like I said I'm just confused to what actually scared him becasuse I do it every night. Rico is also 4 years old and has been on the rack for 5 months and has been doing great but if anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it.

Maybe you should take the gecko tank off Rico’s tank and put it somewhere else. When the tank is on top of another it may effect temperature.

Hi, it could've been the wind. It was surely howling. PLease see my post about Rocky. Yesterday was the first time Rocky responded yet he defininately heard the wind before.
I look at other factors...he is going onto a shed, he finished his brumation (if that is what we want to call it), it's mating season and he has no one but chirping birds that he loves to hear but fears to see...I mean there's a lot going on over here!

I have questions about bubbles on our bearded dragons eye.

So he’s gotten bubbles on his eye. We wiped them off and it’s only been twice in the last few weeks. Should we be concerned? No coughing or congestion. He’s very hungry and sleeps well. He’s 8-9 month range. His humidity is 30-40 day time and as high as 50-55 at night to early morning.
Should we be concerned?
Swordtail has been doing a whole lot of "Lizard yoga" lately
Currently trying not to stress over my anemic dragon....she is being treated, but I don't agree with her treatment plan and have been seeking out a second opinion from another vet. If anyone else has dealt with anemia, please let me know how it was resolved. I am losing sleep over this :cry:
Another post lol. My beardie does not like enclosures. Her tank is the kids room and she has created a nesting/bed spot in the corner. She will cuddle with my son but she know when the lights are out and the kids go to sleep, she literally goes to her bed like she is our 3rd baby. I love her. And to think, I never wanted a beardie lol
