Well...okay, maybe he's not stupid, but he's not that smart...but I have to wonder why he acts the way he does.
He cant have any substrate...because he eats it, paper towels, reptile carpet, etc....He can't have fake plants...because he tries to eat them...he can't have boulders or big rocks in his house...because he likes to try and eat them...
He eats dubia roaches and lots of salad...so he's not deprived of food or nutrients...
I really want to know though, why he freaks out sometimes. He's in a 40 gallon breeder. Randomly, he will start jumping around, smacking into the glass, rubbing his face on it, and doing everything possible to try and get out. He has a uvb set up, and a basking spot lamp on one side that is over a cinder block, so it stays nice and toasty. But he has a cold side too, so he can't be too hot along with climbing branches, a big hide ,and some plants he can't get the leaves off to eat, although there are teeth marks from him trying!...He's a little over a year old, about 20 inches long...He's freaking out behind me right now...he just runs from one end to the other smacking into the glass...
