I have a adult female beardie and I have noticed that she has a tendency of running into the white walls of my apartment. I noticed this more recently because she used to mainly stay by the patio door and look out the window, but has taken to exploring the entire apartment some days when she comes out.
She does glass dance an awful lot, but that part doesn't worry me. What worries me is that she runs full force into the walls... I'm of course worried she's going to hurt herself, but mostly am curious as to the cause. (she has not hurt herself yet, so I'm trying to prevent anything that could happen).
The blinds that cover the patio door are white as well and I was thinking that she may have trained herself that the blinds are white, and they move when she runs into them...
Just looking for any thoughts on this subject... could she have vision problems? or is this just a weird behavioral thing I should watch out for?
Her tank is about 115F on the hot side (I have a smaller bulb to switch to), and the cool side is about 85F.
She also tends to act like she's very interested in the UV light on the tank. There have been a couple times I've caught her out of range of the actual heat bulb and trying to get as much UV light as possible. (I just replaced the UV bulb a week or two ago)
Thanks in advance for any thoughts or advice.
