My 2 month (chain store rescue, I am guesstimating the age) Termper Patty Clark is doing something strange! This is the second time I've found her tub like this. First time was a night or two ago. She always is "rearranging" at her leisure, but I cannot fathom how she is doing this...BOTH of her hides sitting directly on top of each other, stacked perfectly. The two hides start on opposite sides of her tub. There is no food in her enclosure for her to chase, she eats her food items as SOON as I give them to her. The hides are not too small for her. I just can't wrap my brain around it! lol

Here are some pictures of the tub, the way I found it this morning, and some pictures of the little booger herself

LOL that is pretty funny!!! She has some amazing abilities, that's for sure!

I don't get it Jess! It's not hurting anything...she's about to be moved into the new rack, and have twice as big of a tub. I just think it's funny, I'd love to catch her in the act and see the process.

I don't know why they do it but they're re-arrangers from the start. We always have a few that pull their bowls into their hides and then lay behind it. It starts as soon as they're strong enough to move things and it never ends! I call them "hoarders". LOL We have one that perfectly stacks her food bowl inside her water bowl. It's pretty amazing. She's a beautiful gecko by the way!

Thanks Mel She started as this, about a month and a half ago. Talk about a big change!

Speaking of hoarders, we have two in particular that always make a big mess of things in their home.. they don't do anything amazing, but every single day, the entire bin is rearranged. Good to know that some just really like to do that sort of thing lol

I have some seriously messy geckos, too. (Most of them are enigmas...?)
