I know a large group of people with bearded dragons including myself and the majority of them are acting like this, glass dancing, refusing food etc. I'm trying new foods with my adults but since their are adults they don't really like change :S ( Some people call it springfever on Beardeddragon.org )

tiga.Welcome to the Tegu forum family.
bubbasherps ( Jeff ) is it normal for my ( we just got him in October) almost 2 year old Bearded Dragon to want to stay in his hide ( house ) for most or all day long ? I changed the UVB & basking light because he needed a new one but he still hides.One day he is very active and the next day he just hides .

Thank you.We are so excited.We are going to get her on Saturday.So on Sunday we will post some pics.Can't wait.Every time we get a new pet I feel like it is Christmas .I sure hope that she is still as tame as she was when we saw her the last time.( They had to wake her up so we could see her and hold her ).But it looks like that she is a good eater because when they put her pack in the enclosure she ate some crickets.
