Why is she sitting like this???

[twinmommy]

Our baby, Legs, sits like this often. Mostly when she is full. She is under her basking light. 105 F. Does this aid digestion or is she just being silly?

That actually does look a little odd. Has she had a poop lately?

Another thing I thought of is that the area she is laying on might be too hot. What type of thermometer are you using and what are the tank temps?

Im sorry, and I really hope its nothing serious, but i have to say this pic is ADORABLE! it made me laugh out loud when i saw it! Shes a cutie, hopefully its nothing

Maybe she is just holding true to her name? those legs do look cute like this In all seriousness though, is she eating,pooing and acting o.k.?

We think it is hilarious too! Her tank is textbook --learned from the best here!
We have a 100 watt basking light in a dome, that area is 105F. Other side of tank is 80F. We have a Repti-sun 10.0. We are using a temp probe on her basking spot. (The probe is right in front of her, just out of the picture and you can see the cord going up the tank behind her.) She has been eating more greens lately and ate 16 crickets today. That is a lot for her. We have had her for 2 weeks tomorrow and the past 3 days, she has finally started eating good. Fecal neg. And 2 good poops today, thanks to all the crickets and greens she ate yesterday! She takes a warm bath every 2 days and loves to be cuddled. She seems happy and healthy. Hopefully nothing weird develops and this is just something funny she does. I will move her basking light a bit tomorrow just to see! Thank u all for the responses!

Guess everything is fine and she is just "unique."

 

[twinmommy]

Now that I look at the pic again, it almost looks like she is giving me "the finger"! On both sides! Surely not, my sweet girl! Maybe she doesn't like my baby talk!

 

[bdalton]

Hahahah I didn't even notice that, but it really does!!!
Guess you should ease up on the baby talk lol!

Charlie kinda does a similar thing so I dont think there's anything to worry about:
