So, my little Puff has a clean bill of health. I was wondering something tho...
We have started taking him outside daily. When we bring him back inside, he goes to sleep. His normal lights out time is 7:30, but lately, he will go to sleep around 5, when we come back inside. We are only spending like 20 minutes a day outside, and he stays on my shoulder the entire time. Could this be that he is just tired from all the exposure to the real sun? Any ideas?

Maybe he's just tired from the extra stimulation but I'd definitely pay attention to appetite, weight, alertness when he is awake, condition of poop, etc. If you see nothing else pointing to any problems I'd guess it would be ok to just see how things go for awhile.

Just like us I think beardies have days now and then when they are more tired than usual. I think if it continues is when it's time to be concerned.

Puff just received a clean bill of health from the vet. He had coccidia. He has been eating like crazy and growing, too. Plus, he is shedding. Sometimes that makes him crabby. So perhaps it is just a combination of the stimulation of being outside, the rapid growth, the monsterous eating and the shedding...but I am keeping my eye on him..
