I handle him a few times a week. Maybe 3 or 4. When he goes out, i put him on the grass and it's really sunny for about 15 minutes. Is that a good amount of time?

Our beardie is new but we handle him a couple times a day in addition to baths (he feeds in his viv, doesn't like eating in a different place). Right now he is to small and the grass to long (it's either to rainy or hot to mow!) to take outside; I'm afraid of losing him. But he seems to like it, he crawls all over us exploring (note: I like to wait until after he has taken his daily poop :wink: ) and if we are standing by the tank and he sees us he starts scratching and glass dancing while looking at us. He is so fun.

I handle mine a lot. I take him out to give him a bath, to play and go on little adventures around the house (he loves to explore) to snuggle at bedtime and to just say hi.
I was going to modify a whole room for his wandering needs, kinda like a play room.
I have brought him outside a few times when he was extra persistent about going to the windows. I plan to do that again, along with bringing him over to my bf's, but hes not quite ready for that yet.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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.
