my G. Rosea (sweetpea) was laying in her enclosure in a way that appeared to be odd behavior to me as I have never seen a photo of any terrestrial T lay like an Ornamental T. like this....

they do that often after a moult. nothing to worry about. Just streching her legs.
Funny you should mention this...I was going to post the exact same thing about our G.rosea yesterday, but it slipped my mind. She was laying on her rock exactly like that, but she's not post-moult...identity issues? lol

Thanks Kenny, she had just molted about a week before she was doing that it was just weird to see her acting that way...

I take it to mean they are nicely relaxed. It would be difficult to defend oneself in that position, so they are being very chill when you see them like that.

Genics are awesome! My wee one is amusing as she "stalks" her chopped up cricket bit before she fiercely attacks it and does her little "Look at me I am a mighty hunter" dance!!!
