Hello everyone,
So Spyra has been off the walls full of energy the past couple of days. To call her hyper would be an understatement. When she sees one of us come into the room she starts cage dancing and going crazy tearing her decor apart, and she will do this for as long as it takes until I get her out. I give her playtime to run around the room frequently and I take her outside to play in the grass everyday for 30min-1hour. And on top of this she gets window time and watches tv with us every night. Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that she enjoys getting out and has so much playful energy. However, sometimes I would like to come into my room and be able to have some me time. I'm a college senior so I could really use a little study time here and there without worrying that she's going to hurt herself from going crazy in her Viv.
Another issue this hyper energy is creating is that she's not basking properly after she eats. Right after I feed her she knows I'm in the room obviously so she eats than immediately starts going nuts. I'll sit her on her basking log and she will leap right back off of it. So I have to go back outside in 95 degree weather and sit with her so she will bask in order to digest her food.
I was told that this sounds like bearded dragon puberty? And that it is something she will grow out of? I'm just wanting to get all of your thoughts on that
Thanks in advance
