I've noticed quite a change in my young egyptian since moving over to a soil substrate. He honestly seems completely "wild" now. He has dug his own very long burrow right underneath his basking rock and whenever my hand comes near his tank he is under it in an instant. He is only 60 grams however so it may just be his young age that makes him so instinctively flighty. If you recently decided to switch over to a burrowable substrate it may have caused more instinctual behavior. Has anyone else noticed this?
