Hey Greg,

It's probably nothing to worry about. Sometimes they like to sit on the floor. If it's eating and defecating normally then there is probably nothing wrong.

If the animal was an imported specimen you should make sure it is parasite free. Most vets can check for internal parasites with a small fecal sample. If it's clean then great, if it has something you can treat accordingly. It's worth the $. I've seen numerous imported animals that do well for quite a while then crash suddenly due to a buildup in parasite load.

Terrestrial GTP's... the next craze in ball pythons. LOL
