Okay, so I'm new to the 'healthy' beardie and am confuzzled by this lil one we've got. She does such goofy things and some concerning things. I think I'm extra paranoid because my other beardie was sick for so long and we never knew what signs to look for, now I think everything's a sign!
My biggest concern is after she eats, she flattens herself out like a pancake and rests her head on the log. I was told they should never flatten themselves out, but was never told why! Is it alright if she flattens for a little while, then goes back to her royal pose? Pushed up, head tilted just so.
She was also trying to burrow into my husband's hand while he was holding her, when he put her back into her tank, she started rubbing the top of her head on the log, kind of like a bear does when scratching it's back. Is this normal?
I get such a kick out of watching her.. we put a new background on the tank a few days ago and she's still trying to climb into the plants on the picture!
