Beardie acting weird...

Today my beardie has been hiding, all day, he came out once, then I walked past him and he ran away and hid again, he was laying there and I held a piece of carrot out to him and he just closed his eyes.

Last night he was fine, basking and gaping, but today, not so much...

Does anyone know what the matter is?

Maybe it's the color of the pants you're wearing ....



Seriously, If it's only one day and he wants to be left alone, you'll get that sometimes. Maybe he just needs a break, is starting a shed or was up partying all night. If it continues beyond a week, I'd get more worried.

He has just finished shedding, he just started tapping his nose on the walls and walking in circles twisting around etc.

Mine get lethargic from time to time, I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Maybe just double check his temps to make sure everything is ok on that front.

How old is he - I had a juvie walking in circles, it ended up being a genetic problem. This didn't happen overnight though.
He was a bit off for a couple of weeks and then just started the circle walking.
