Odd Sleeping Habit?

skimmerset Jun 15, 2006 11:25 PM

Duckie (approx. 4 mo female) randomly started sleeping standing up a few weeks ago... standing up as in 2 front legs on the side of her enclosure and just barely resting her tail and back two legs on the ground... belly against the glass... I guess she just likes to fall asleep staring at my ceiling... haha

It was just so funny to me that I thought I'd see if anyone else has a beardie that sleeps standing...?

ps. I tried to post pics but apparently my computer doesn't like me tonight so I'll try again later.

Bearded dragons deffinitely find the most odd and uncomfortable positions to sleep. it's perfectly normal and fun to see.
