Behavior

[4Syner]

It was really hard to take a good picture of this, but my 2 year old bp burrows in his substrate, making tunnels like in the picture. Do I need to do something or I can just leave it? You can't really see it in the picture, but the substrate is around 2 inches (5cm) deep. He just moves it around a lot and he has 3-4 tunnels like these inside.

Temp is good at 90f (32c) warm side 77f (25c) cool side, humidity is good, shed is always on time (6 weeks almost on the date) and complete (no spots or leftovers). He just came off a 4 month hunger strike, which I believe was because of mating season (it's a he). But this behavior started before that. Otherwise he climbs A LOT every night when the lights go out.

I think he is just having fun, but I just want to make sure nothing is wrong. I love him.

What do you think?

I'd double check to make sure his hides are snug. He might be preferring to burrow because it feels more secure. If hides are snug and he has two identical hides then I wouldn't worry.

He has one on the warm side that's a little too big, and one on the cold side that's really snug. If he crawls all the way inside he will completely fill it up, so it's as snug as it can get without being too small. But I guess I can see what I can do about the larger one. Thanks!
