Weird beardie behaviour

[Horsy]

So I got my bearded dragon hatchling on Tuesday and have noticed a very strange sleeping pattern. Everynight he climbs to the top of his branch, stands up on his hindlegs and sleeps pressed flat against the glass. Is this normal? Here are some photos;





Sorry for the blurriness. I have a crap camera.

thats normal, they will sleep anywhere, nothing to worry about,

Thats nothing! Wait until they are on the ground sleeping like that against the glass, they are like on a 90 degree's angle with their back!

If he was uncomfortable he'd move. I have Leaf tail geckoes that i have a Chux cloth hanging from the roof of their cage as they love nothing more than to hang upside down all day. I have a forest dragon that like to hang by one leg.

Glad to read that someone elses sleeps in funny positions. My babies seem to get themsleves into the weirdest sleeping positions. One likes to sleep pressed up against the glass right up the cold end of the tank. Being only 3 weeks old, I usually get a little paranoid that it will get too cold and move him (her) up towards the warmer end. It basically sleeps through this and will stay whereever I put it for the whole night. The other likes to jam itself under anything it can find, wont use its hides or anything, likes to jam itself under the end of branches, somewhere really tight. lol
They are just too cute!

Cheers

Dont worry Horsy. Beardies of any age, as well as nearly all Lizards will sleep in what looks like the most uncomfortable of places.
