Hello Everyone, I have 2 bearded dragons; Viper and Spyro. Something really strange just happened. And I am a little scared. I was out having dinner, and when I came home I noticed how funny Spyro was sleeping. You know that small platform at the opening you sometimes have in a terrarium? Yeah well she was sleeping upright against the glass on the platform. I know they can sleep in weird positions like that, she has before, and it's really cute. But when I was upstairs my mom called me and told me that Spyro had fallen off the platform and was totally confused and that she was "awake" but she wasn't. Not really. When I came downstairs my mom told me that she acted all triggered and crazy walking into the glass frantically a few times and climbing on the platform to take the same position again. My mom told me to put her on the ground so she could sleep peacefully, and not fall again. The strange thing was that she had her eyes open wide. You know like she was dead, not really looking at something. Really freaky. So she was in a trance? Or sleepwalking. She was still asleep but awake at the same time. She is really tame and pretty slow. But still I was a little afraid to touch her when she was looking like that. But I softly petted her anyway, to look what would haplen before I could grab her and place her on the ground. That was a mistake. The moment I touched her she jumped backwards and began walking into the glass again and then scrambling on the platform to yet again take the same position. I decided to let it be, but when I went to check an half hour later she still had her eyes open. I made a picture. This is so freaky, I have never seen this before. I read one post that was pretty similar to what happened with Spyro, but I couldn't find very much. I hope she's all right and she will be 'normal' again tomorrow
This is a picture of her in the "trancelike" state:
