    Weird sitting spot?

    Okay. My terrarium is the perfect temp now. 90 hot side, 80 cold, with a humidity a little over 50, which is a little high, but its freshly wetted coconut bark. Each side (warm and cold) have a hide, and the cold side has a 8" tall thermometer/hydrometer. Its a great one with a probe the goes to the warm side. Anyways, I came home today to find my BP sitting on top of it with his neck stretched out towards the center of the cage. For the life of me, I dont know what he was doing on there. There was no heat lamp or anything to attract him. Was he going for fresher air, or trying to cool down, or do they just like to be up high :S?
    EH?

    i have one female pastel that likes to crawl up in her plant and point her head towards the center of her cage and just sit there. I think that's how she likes to hunt

    They're just goofy sometimes. We'll never know why they do half the silly things they do.

    i think my pastel does it because she's "hungry" but she would eat every day if I let her (which I certainly do not). she must have an instinct to bulk up so she can make babies
