I've had my Bearded Dragon for 5 days now and when he arrived he didn't have very many stress marks, but now his beard and right down to his belly has them. He was in a super tiny viv when I picked him up and now he's in one over 5x bigger. Should I maybe cover the back and sides of the viv with paper? I don't know if he's stressing out because he can see too much and it's daunting.

Any feedback, questions or comments are appreciated.

He will still be settling down, relocation stress can last two weeks. if you want you could cover some sides of the viv, but he should settle in a week or so.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
