    Bob was completely in his water bowl.

    When I get home today I found Bob completely in his water bowl with his head hanging out. I verified all my temps and humidity and they were spot-on. Did he just want to go for a swim. He barely fits in the bowl.

    Did you check for mites?

    No signs of mites. I did the paper towel trick. He seams healthy.

    Maybe he's gonna shed soon. If the temps and humidity are good, I have no idea. You could try bumping the humidity up

    I keep five in tanks in my living room, spot on husbandry. And on more then one occasion, I’ve seen almost all of them take a not to often dip in the bowl. It’s not exactly unheard of, if everything is on, I wouldn’t sweat it. I’d be concerned if it was regular, but on occasion, no worries. I actually prefer giving a bowl big enough for just that.
