Hey Everyone,

Just a quick question for everyone with beardies. I have my sub adult female in a large 90 gallon tank, and noticed late one night there was a cricket chirping still left in the cage with her. I generally don't leave crickets in her cage over night, so I decided to find it while she was sleeping. I wanted to make sure the cricket was not hiding underneath her body or against her, so I gently picked her up and moved her. Obviously this woke her up, and I was just wondering if waking them up at night like that could stress them out at all? I think you would probably have to do it a lot to stress them and this was just a one time thing to find a cricket. But, I just wanted to see what people say.

Thanks
