This has always bothered me but I have never put this question out there.
Now I know in Australia, Beardies just sit and soak up the sun. But if they desire, they can move anywhere they want. The have no restrictions. But when they are in an enclosure, as they are in a terrarium, they just find a place under the heat lamp and sit there the whole day.
Whenever I walk in on my Beardie, she is just staring straight out. I always feel bad for her. Right now, I play a CD of various artist and genres for about two hours at a time throughout the day.
It sounds silly, but I feel like I should be somehow entertaining her, like with a flea circus or something.
Now you know I am just kidding when I say that, but I feel so bad for her because she has no interaction with anything throughout the entire day.
Does anyone have any ideas of how I can give her some stimulation during the day when I am not home (I'm working during the day)? I am so unbelievably tired when I get home, that most of the time, I won't take her out because it involves me following her around everywhere and making sure she doesn't hurt herself by eating something that could cause her problems, or going somewhere that may have sharp, metal edges.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks a bunch!
