Hello guys,

Today I noticed some weird behavior with my female. She is about 1 year old.
I bought her 15 days ago and she is eating good. The only thing is that she is always on her hide...I thought she is a little shy but today when I went my home I found her outside, looking tired and sometimes when she breaths, she puts her head up and down.

When she arrived I kept her on my other tank for about 10 minutes and she and my male start's mating...now they are on separate tanks.

I checked the temperatures and everything looks normal. She's eating normal everyday.

I never saw this before so, do I have to worry about this?!

does she have a gaping jaw as if she is short of breath?

Is she having trouble breathing? Or is she just uncomfortable with your presence? I know some of my geckos will stay still and take fast DEEP breaths (the head will slightly move up and down) when I suddenly rush into their room and startled them...
