phoenix, my young anery motley, has been going nuts the past two days. nothing i did settled her. she was literally climbing the walls. i changed her kitchen roll, after scrubbing out her tub, gave her a new cardboard insert hide, and rinsed through all her other stuff, plants and other hide. and changed her water. she was still going mad. tonight i was spraying the walls and corns that are due to shed, and she started going doubly mental. by this time i was about off my head trying to figure out what was up. so i gave her walls a spray too. she started sucking the water droplets off the sides of her tub, she did this for about half an hour, and is now settled in her cardboard tube asleep.
i must remember to spray her walls every morning and night till she decides to go back to her water bowl. anyones elses have weird habits? _________________

she is still doing it sue!!!a couple of times her neighbour, cygnet gave it a try, but got fed up waiting and drank out her bowl, but she just wont. and i have scrubbed it loads, gave her differant water etc etc. she still waits for the walls getting sprayed. and if i forget or am taking too long, she goes berserk in the tub till she sees the sprayer coming!!! and they say they are not intelligent!! _________________

Maybe she just prefers it that way Lynne Strange some of the things they do. Finally managed to get out female snow to stop rubbing her head raw on the faunarium lid, put her onto aspen and she's as happy as the proverbial pig now I thought she'd escaped the other day, silly thing had buried herself right into the aspen and blended in with it Now just have to get the Amel to calm down and behave _________________ www.draco2.co.uk
