Hello, I have a pair of texas spineys. I have had them since June of last year. One of my pair (not sure male or female) has been laying on the basking log with it's nose pointing toward the ceiling and has been this way for hours now. It's in some sort of trance. It's holding it's head up pretty high. I typically cannot pick them up but he/she is allowing it today. Body looks fine. Well nourished no sores. This is a fixed position not push ups. Any ideas what this behavior means? Thank you.
