Last night, after his lights out, Putz suddenly started to violently flip over onto his back. He did this 6-7 times, then seemed to be alright. Thought it was just a bad dream or something. About 5 minutes later, he started again. When I picked him up, he was rigid and audibly panting, his heart beating fast. He slowly relaxed and seemed to return to normal after about a half hour of holding him. I then returned him to his tank but got up several times to check on him. This morning, all seems fine. He's his usual snarky, "feedmenow" self.
Could he have had a seizure or something similar? Nothing in his setup has changed. He gets calcium dust on his supers every other day. The only real change is he's eaten several grasshoppers while outside. Could a large 'hopper cause this?
Please help, I can't lose Putzy. Not so soon after Izzy passing away!
