My bearded dragon

[BigMerlin]

He's about 4-5 years old now and has a large home that he has been living in for about 3 years. but lately he's been rubbing against the glass constantly. I've tried everything but he keeps doing it!! he does it so much that his snout is cut open and raw....i don't know what to do and it's sad seeing him like this

what could be wrong with him?

what are u using for ligthing ?
what r your temps like?
what are you feeding?
also mabye she just wants to come out and play with you my female would jump of her rock and do the same thing even attempting to jump out of the tank from her basking spot
take her ut take a nap just let her chill out

He just now started doing this? Just asking because my beardie just hit puberty (he's a lil over a year) & he is always glass climbing & head bobbing, especially in the morning. I also think they do this sometimes if they can see their refection in the glass. If this is the case, u could try covering up the back & sides of the tank with a nice background pic. Just a thought.
