Stress marks when to be concerned?

[DragonLuver211]

Ok so I got my little guy through a craigslist ad and he was 5months old roughly they bought him in May from ptsmart and I got him from them in September. He wasn't being fed enough so hes a small little guy but hes grown 2 inches since I've had him and shed twice already. I have had beardies in the past but never one that wasn't completely healthy. Anywho he has been doing quite well and is very friendly but he always seems to have stress marks on his belly? He is in my big bay window nothing but trees out there but could that be a factor? Also I was wondering if my kids constantly being in his face (through the glass) could be upsettting him. He does seem to interact with them although. I'm just not sure what could be causing them and if I need to worry he is eating/pooping just fine.

Do you have a UVB light? It needs to be a Reptisun 10.0 TUBE, not the coil bulb, or the arcadia 12%...ALL other bulbs will hurt ur beardie... they are known to cause eye problems, including blindness, and an array of other problems.. If you dont have the proper UVB light that could def be causing him to stress.. Also how often are you checking the temps? Being by a bay window when the suns coming in may cause it to be too hot in there.

I have prob thermometers and they are on all the time. His temps dnt vary much because the window doesn't get direct sun thanks to all the trees. Also yes I have the tube blub no coils we used to run the Zilla desert bulb with our other beardies with no problems but after being on here and before I got this little guy I bought the ReptiSun 10. Thats why I can't think of much that would be causing it. The only thing I could think as maybe since my kids are loud and running through the house maybe that stresses him out? He does play with them both through the glass and most times they aren't close to his space but I'm just not sure also we have 2 big dogs they don't pay much attention to him but do you think that could play a part?
