Does your Beardie do this, too?? My little guy was done eating his crickets, and I misted him, like I do every once in a while, so he can drink. He likes to have it drip on him and lick it up off his flat rock. So, he's licking and drinking, and I'm misting away, and then he starts to belly drag, off his rock and on to the damp paper towels. It was like he was doing the "Crawl" in swimming. One leg out, the other one flat behind him, then he'd switch. He actually had me scared for a minute (doing new and odd things, as usual) but when I reached in he jumped up and ran to his salad bowl thinking he was getting more food. So, is Hagrid an oddity? (Named by my 10 year old son, rationalizing that they both have beards...)

Not odd at all. I have a male here that jumps up into the air to catch more spray... he does back flips and everything and then drags himself around trying to get all of himself wet.
