All the adult beardies I've seen tend to be very lazy. Seems they grow out of their high energy youth. It's that and the feeding that's the biggest hang ups for me. I'll just have to stay strong and not fold lol

It's because they are kept with too cold in my opinion. Wayne once mentioned while speaking about wild monitors, that they never really bask. They bask for 3 minutes on extremely hot surfaces because if they sit for 5 hours in a spot they will be eaten. Same would be true for bearded dragons, and no I don't think for one second they know there is no predator in captivity and that's why they bask for 5 hours now...
