Paper Towels Aren’t Food

So today while I was cleaning some poop off of Healy’s basking rock, he did something he’d never done before. He tried eating the paper towel, acting how he does when I hold a hornworm above him and kind of make him run around the tank for it (gotta make sure he gets his exercise before I reward him lol). I had never used paper towel as a substrate because I always assumed his dumbass would try eating it lmao, he’s always had a reptile carpet. Guess it’s a good thing I never tried paper towel because my suspicions have been confirmed lmao. He was rewarded with crickets and some bearded dragon bites (that he never eats) after I cleaned it lmao, I love how dumb Helios is everyday.

They are lil characters, and every single one has it's own unique personality. My newest would chase a hornworm to the end of existence lol.
