Help!!! Weird beardie behavior?

[pikachurock]

Ive had my beardie for almost 3-4 years, (I got him on the 24!) and if almost 4. He started to try and mate everything around him a month ago, and i dont know why!? He has a been bag i made him, and it have rice on it. I told my mom about it, and she thinks he is just itchy. But he bites it and hits everything in his cage.


Please tell me if im doing anything wrong!

Im a noob but here are a few things I suggest you can do.

Check if he has any wounds lumps mites take a real good look.
Think of anything you introduced just before it happened and remove/stop using it.
If it doesnt help I advice you to go to the vet ! better safe than sorry.

Your welcome.
Maybe you can take some pictures ?
A picture says more than a 1000 words after all.

I see doesnt look really bad.
But it looks like he is shedding ?
Maybe he has some trouble with shedding and is rubbing to get the skin off ?

also is everything else normal ? eating, poo, active etc

Well, he has a big white strip on his tail, but should i still consult a vet? i had mites half a year or so a go, but we acted fast

Hi there....you say he is trying to mate everything ? That's what they do, they may bite on something because that's how they would subdue a female at the back of the neck. Then if he's shaking the rice bag, he has decided that it the object of his desire. That's pretty much what's going on....no need for a vet. He will calm down in a few weeks or so, maybe sooner.
