Does anyone elses dragon when laying on the branch just jump off and run straight into the side of the tank and then just stare at the wall for a while?? He also just jumps off the branch and lands on the ledge of the glass front and claws at the glass!! Anyone?

Maybe he wants out?

Or maybe he sees his reflection in the glass and thinks it's another beardie?

wants out, reflections....yep could be any of those. Mine only tend to come to the front if they think food is approaching or they see a cricket or locust across the room (they even get excited when they see locust in other lizard cages).

My beardie comes up to the front of her viv and scratches at the glass when she wants to defecate(clever huh?). within about a minute of taking her out she poops, so i put bog roll under her and theres no mess to clean up, practically house trained Laughing
