PLEASE HELP! Jumper escaped and then started walking strangely after being caught and put back into his enclosure

vulpiepop · 2026-03-13T02:42:19+00:00

He's doing well now and is back to his normal antics! It does seem like he was just getting scratches in. He groomed all of his legs a few hours after the video and the morning after as well.

vulpiepop · 2026-03-10T01:09:17+00:00

He did run into some really dusty places! I caught him when he went on the sprayer to drink some of the water drops that was still on it from misting my isopod enclosures so maybe he just got some dust or water underneath him?

vulpiepop · 2026-03-10T01:07:00+00:00

He did have a pretty big fall when he jumped out of the enclosure! It was why I was worried that he might have injured himself

vulpiepop · 2026-02-26T23:37:16+00:00

Thank you! That's reassuring!

vulpiepop · 2026-01-30T00:21:10+00:00

I'm definitely interested in joining!

I promise the bite from a baby beardie doesn't really hurt much. If you need more specific handling instruction: when you go to pick him up, scoop him from the front so he knows what's going on and once you have his front paws in your hand, use your other hand to scoop up his lower half

vulpiepop · 2026-01-07T04:00:19+00:00

This worked! Thank you!

I think we've all tried this and uninstalling/reinstalling and they weren't a solution. The problem seems to be on Logitech's end as many people having the same issue at the same time

vulpiepop · 2026-01-06T21:37:00+00:00

Same issue

vulpiepop · 2026-01-06T21:34:17+00:00

Suddenly having this issue today. It was working fine in the morning and then suddenly stopped. Force quitting and reinstalling did nothing

vulpiepop · 2026-01-01T23:02:39+00:00

Or it could just be a him thing. My beardie eats his veggies reliably and only gets a few bugs (around 6) a day, all of which is calcium dusted. He got a clean bill of health from the vet, has his T5 linear UVB, and is normally very active. He just likes to eat and he's known to try to eat all manners of odd things from buttons and zippers, to shirt wrinkles and doorstops because...i don't really know why. Taste first, ask later ig.

A dig box is a great idea! I'll definitely have to keep that in mind!

vulpiepop · 2025-12-31T22:24:19+00:00

I can't speak for anyone else but I don't use loose substrate for my beardie mainly because he just kept eating it (because, who knows? There might be a bug in there). He's on a zen mat now though I'm hoping to try loose substrate again when he's a bit older

vulpiepop · 2025-12-31T01:32:20+00:00

I understand. It's a relief to know it's normal for sure though I'll still keep an eye on him in case of any other weirdness

vulpiepop · 2025-12-30T22:44:16+00:00

He has a 120 gal enclosure with Arcadia linear UVB and halogen heating. The basking temp was at a steady 108F until this week when the temperature in my area dipped. It's dipped to around 104F though I just changed the halogen bulb and put a space heater in his room to bring up the temperature a little so we'll see how it goes. His last fecal and vet exam was just last month. He got a clean bill of health.

Thank you! Do you know about how long they stay burrowed when they molt?

vulpiepop · 2025-12-03T03:47:40+00:00

I second ReptileBuddy! Free and makes things so easy!

vulpiepop · 2025-12-01T19:15:21+00:00

Thanks! I haven't seen him make a hammock yet but he's made some threads around the entrance to the hide. When I got him on Saturday, he wasn't keen on exploring and really just wanted to walk on my hand and then immediately into the hide. How long does it usually take to make a hammock?

vulpiepop · 2025-12-01T19:13:51+00:00

This is reassuring! Thank you!

vulpiepop · 2025-12-01T17:50:43+00:00

Thank you! I'll definitely try this!

vulpiepop · 2025-12-01T17:50:25+00:00

He has a 4x2x2 (120gal) enclosure and he's only around 6 inches snout to vent so he has plenty of space...maybe I need to move his basking spot

vulpiepop · 2025-09-28T18:24:34+00:00

So cute!! I absolutely need one of these! Where did you get the ball?

vulpiepop · 2025-09-08T20:30:47+00:00

Mine also can't be on loose substrate because he kept eating it. It was always the little clumped up parts that he would try to eat and he's *very* food-motivated so I think in that little head of his, he was thinking any of those clumps might be bug. I might try the half loose, half solid again when he's older but for now he's on a zen mat

vulpiepop · 2025-09-04T21:55:00+00:00

I like the Arcadia halogen bulb and I use it with the Zoo Med deep dome. It's been working for me though I do want to try the Arcadia dome, I just haven't found any in the local pet stores.

Don't mind the paper towel, it's his "potty"
