I bought a bearded dragon about 2 months ago, she (the owner presumes it's a girl) is relatively young and about 12 inches long. I have a 3 x 2 x 2 vivarium that gets to around 100c warm side and 80c cool side with a basking spot of 105c. She has a repti carpet substrate, 2 heat lamps, 1 coil UVB lamp and a Habba Hut. She is fed crickets 3 times a day and veggies daily.
Now my problem! The first few weeks we had absolutely no trouble. She was eating, pooping, shredding and active. However the past month she has been acting odd. She went to sleep in her hut, and then woke up, but decided to stay there all day. I left her for the first day to see if she was just relaxing, but then she decided not to move the next day either. I took out her hut and she was fine, went and basked and ate and pooped. But as soon as her house goes back in, she goes and lays under that all day long until it's removed.
Last night I decided to see what happens if I didn't put her hut back in. I left it out and at about 8pm she crawled to the corner and curled up and went to sleep. I woke up, at 8am and she was still there (this was regular even when she was active), however I came back from school at 2:40pm and she is still sat in the corner, not moved a muscle, but awake...
Is there something wrong? What can I do?
Thanks in advance,
Nathan.
