Rango at the river

I went camping. I didn't have anyone to keep Rango so I take her with me. Now I have a small tank with all the heat bulbs and everything. So she wasn't just roaming around with no heat. But like I do everyday I took her out and and put her in the river sand. She walked around her a minute and found a spot and laid down and began to dig. Do all bearded dragon do this?

If not all most will, especially females, but makes dig as well. It's fun enrichment for them.

But this poor thing I felt so bad, she sat there for 2 hours doing this. I thought it was what shes going to do in her dig box or whatever. But after 2 hours I couldn't help but notice she would dig for a few seconds and then stop and take long deep breaths and u can tell Rango was exhausted. I finally picked her up and washed the dirt out of her eyes and she never went back to that whole

I'm guessing just something new, so once she had done her thing it's on to the next lol . When they are not stressed or scared beardies are pretty inquisitive little creatures.

Awww she's very cute! Is it possible that it's colder outside and she was trying to bury herself and brumate?
