Hey everyone!
So I have a super awesome blue bar ambilobe panther and he's really healthy, drinks lots of water (I don't see him drink, but his urates are perfect white), eats normally...
The ONE quirk I have noticed with Heisenberg is, he will NOT poop in his cage. Like, EVER. And if he does, it's because he's been holding it for a couple days. He will poop daily if he's in the sun, but ONLY if he's in the sun.
Anyone experience this with their chams? He reminds me of me. Compartmentalizing his life. haha
It's kind of at a point now where, he only poops when I take him out and let him roam around on me. What is that? It trips me out...
My original theory is that he needs the sun to poop, but that's not true anymore. Now he just wants to be outside the cage in order to poop.
Maybe he doesn't like to poop in his own quarters? He lives in a 2'x2'x4' Reptibreeze, so he has plenty of space (though someday I will be outfitting an entire room for him)
I can't really complain though, the second I open his cage, he practically sprints to my arm and climbs to the top of my head, walks around a little, goes back and forth on my shoulders then goes down to my hand and begins his "PP" (pooping process).
It really cracks me up! His poo is very healthy, slightly moist, good healthy brown coloring and paper white urates. So I'm not worried about his health, he just has the strangest little personality haha.
Let me know what your lil guy/gal does to "go!" I'm really curious now!
Thanks guys!
