Today Puff is running around her tank rubbing her nose along the glass of her tank I know with the water dragon that I had he got and infection by doing this should I be considered or what should I look out for?

Just keep an eye on it. Luci used to always do that too. He would also run straight into doors when he let him loose in the house. He now has a dark spot on the tip of his nose.

From my experience that means one of two things. Either the beardie is looking for attention and want to get out and roam or the tank is two small. They will rub there noses bloody day after day if they don't like the size of there tank. (Meaning to small. You can't really go to big)
