Is Being Upside Down Normal?

[honksbonk]

My beardie has been running around like normal, so I don’t think there’s anything wrong with him. The only thing Im worried about is that he keeps jumping onto the bottom of his hammock? he lays upside down for a while and then climbs up to the top to loop himself around. Is that normal? Is he okay? This is an image of him doing it.

Upside down like spider man? Or like his front half is on a downward tilt? If its the latter then that’s normal, some beardies even eat with their back ends elevated, if hes climbing fully upside down like spiderman thats not normal and you have a crazy beardie.

He looks healthy though, if i may , you might want to cover the glass in your enclosure, beardies hate seeing their reflection, and they think there’s another dragon in there

Like fully upside down, it’s very weird - I’ll try my best to get a picture when he does it, but he crawls on the underside of his hammock instead of just going on to it normally

Will do, thank you!

I got a series of pictures of him doing it! I’m going to get tape to cover the rest of his glass tonight. He’s shedding too, so the behavior might be because of that?

Him hanging on the back of the hammock is normal --- the underneath thing I am not so sure --

Yea you got a crazy bearded dragon on your hands, get him a “cork bark tube” he’ll love crawling inside and on that, mine did the “spider man” crawl when she was a baby, i put lots of things for her to climb on, you want to encourage their semiarboreal behavior.
