Digging

[wtbullins]

My beardie has been digging during the day lately. He is eating fine, although he is not interested in his salad, only crickets. He is only ~7 months old. Any idea why he is so interested in digging?

You might have a she. I know Female dragons dig when they re about to lay eggs ((either fertile or non)) Im not sure, but thats my 2 cents

its possible that its a she...though from looking at the underside it looks like a he....however I didn't think he/she was old enough to be laying infertile eggs anyways.

What are your temps? how are you taking them? They dig when they are cold, but it could be many things. This is just what I can think of off the top of my head. Oscar digs, or tries to dig his tiles when he wants bugs.
