My beardie is three months and a year old, and I’ve been a bit worried lately about a possible respiratory infection or disease. I’ve heard him cough a few times before, and he puffs up his body and beard a lot. Every day multiple times a day he’s puffed up to the absolute maximum. He started coughing a few times a day every other day when I had a bowl of water in his tank, so I took it out around a month ago and I figured the humidity was just too high. Now he rarely coughs. The puffing up is a bit odd to me and I don’t really know why he seems to love swallowing air and puffing up like that. He’s been doing that since I got him. He doesn’t wheeze or make a clicking noise when he breathes, he only gapes when he basks and has only gaped without basking a couple times in the year I’ve had him for. He doesn’t have discharge around his nose, eyes, ears, or mouth.
