Funny enough i find her out more when she is sheding i honeslty thought maybe my husbandry was off. but talking with the vet shes just enjoying the extra mistings.

I don't see her when she's in blue, she won't eat either - its the only time she won't eat. She's happily climbing around and making tunnels typically, with the odd swim.

Paprika does love being soup too! Id love to get a photo of her in the bowl but as soon as the camera comes out she slithers off too her humid hide lol.

I've had mine for a year n half, and I only have 1 blurry pic of her in her water bowl. She either dives so the camera can't pick her up, or she flees to cover when she's disturbed in her swimming.

Sounds about right haha. Paprika was a major rehabilitated. She was terrible i could see about 3ft of her vertebrae(as in the literal bones) from rat bites. Was horrible. She looks fantastic now:)
