Hello, I recently received a juvenile bearded dragon and he seems to be doing relatively well (is a little stressed due to the new environment). I noticed he was looking up towards his basking light with his eyes closed, and was wondering if it's normal basking behavior.
I posted a picture of it above. I don't think it looks like stargazing, but just want to be safe.
They will often close their eyes and relax while basking. I'm unable to see your photo. Please try uploading it here https://www.beardeddragon.org/useruploads/ and then you should be able to post it to your thread by pressing the XIMG button when you reply.
Yeah that's just relaxing. It looks like he's enjoying his basking site. Stargazing looks odd and less controlled, sending their head back further in the air.
