Enigma Syndome?

[JoseLorenzoFTW]

Err, hey. I have a hypo leopard gecko, she's a month and three days old. And her father is a Mack Snow, mother is a Tremper Enigma. Is it possible that she may get "Enigma Syndrome" ? She keeps on trying to climb the walls of her enclosure. Hope you guys may help! Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I meant Enigma Syndrome.

Yes, it is possible, but I don't think the fact that she's climbing the walls of her cage necessarily indicates that.

Enigma Syndrome is usually characterized by circling and star gazing. If the gecko is climbing the walls I would triple check your temperatures and make sure there is a floor spot of about 90 degrees and the air temperature is cooler than that. Also make sure your gecko has at least two hides where it can get 100% out of the light and hide. if those conditions are met I would just give it some time to adjust. If it is an enigma then symptoms may get worse over time. If it is not enigma then it shouldn't exhibit the symptoms.

Some times what looks like climbing the walls is actually leaving there scent
