Message: <blockquote data-quote="Phil" data-source="post: 104749" data-attributes="member: 4151">Quick question, does it spend most it's time on the log and off the ground? It may be related to substrate not being right (and causing it stress). Although at first glance everything looks OK in the enclosure. It is large for a T that size currently but a good choice for when it grows.Edit: another (possibly stupid) question.....have you put in waxworms or mealworms (other burrowing prey) as daft as it sounds I have a couple of Ts who get completely freaked by these and can't cope with things underneath their substrate which often means they stay off the ground and get stressed. Highly unlikely but you never know......Another edit. Only just seen the first video. Really strange so not sure any of the above applies anymore.</blockquote>
