your welcome stefie

Answer #4

That happens when it’s hormonal or aggravated … have you made any new changes to his habitat? Something even as simple as improper temperature can upset him.

Answer #5

Actually yes, 2 or so weeks ago i cleaned out his terrarium, it use to be really cramped and full of twigs and logs and such, so much he could barely move and he rarely did. We thought he was going to die because he wasn’t eating, now its bigger more space and he seems to be happy and has been very active moving around frequently. Every time i let him out, he loves it but just runs so fats i need o put him back in which results in him wanting to come back out.

Answer #6

He could be stressed or like mine, he could be puffing out his beard to soak in warmth if he/she’s cold. By the way, awesome pet! :D
