Ik its probably just her glass surfing or begging for bugs but I really expected her to explore her enclosure a little bit more. Ungrateful... 😔
She has the whole 9 yards for a set up if it wasnt obvious. I just dont have her favorite rock that she hangs out on in her basking spot, which is the resin rock hide in the back for daytime basking whenever she feels like it. The rock usually doesnt get warm though since its not directly under the basking lamp during the day. So I heat it up with the heat projector after her lights go off and turn it off before bed. Kinda like how it gets warm during the afternoons I imagine. Is this bad care? Should I stop doing this? I just get a little worried that she might get cold, especially since she hangs out there a lot during her night periods, yk, when its very cold. Perhaps because she thinks rock=food but idk she has a whole 50 gallons to hang out in if she gets bored of waiting for food.
She also has albanism, she hangs out on the cool side a lot during the say since shes sensitive to light, so she doesnt get as much heat as she should or that I feel comfortable with (i got her the trex skull and she has quite a bit of shadey spots on her warm side for her to hide her face in but shes too dumb to utilize them). I dont think this is a big issue and it may be a special personal care practice only for my gecko (since every gecko is different) but I still dont want to have bad gecko care practices.
She gets fed tomorrow night and I gave her a worm yesterday as a treat/snack
I was so happy seeing zelda perched on this branch that I got for her and exploring. Please put places for your gecko to climb in your enclosures!!! Its so worth it seeing your gecko use the space you give them :)
Today may have been the last edits I make to the enclosure. But something just feels. Missing. I have 5 hides, 3 of which are the required hot humid and cool. I have branches, fake plants, enrichment, slate, things for her to climb and explore and look at. But somehow I still dont feel satisfied. I feel like I need to change something. Make it better. Constantly. I keep fidgeting with it and I dont want to anymore because I dont want to stress zelda out.
