I have a little guy acting very wierd.
When he is moving around his tub he moves really normal. But when you pick him up or get him excited he will move on his side. He sits normal in a ball like any other corn. Just when excited it seems.
He is very small. 6 grams. Eats fine. Since I have had him home I started him on a ver small pinky that the head had got knocked off. And today he ate a small full pinky.
But this wierd twisting movement has me worried. I don't know if this matters too much. But he is an anery striped/motley definitively popped male.
Is it just an over excited reaction? Not enough muscle control because of his small size? Possibly stargazer?
He doesn't roll right over. He doesn't lift up and just stare off. In fact of the three I brought home that day he was the calmest. You can go in his tub and do whatever you have to do and he just lies there until you try to pick him up. then he is a little flighty. But does calm down. When he is in that flighty mode he will even lie on his side in your hand and look sideways at you. But not when just moving around in his tub as you look from outside.
Anyways, I hope that someone else can let me know or has some experience with it. I had plans for him when he grew up. But if he is a stargazer those plans will be done in. I will probably keep him as he functions and eats fine, just won't breed him if that is the concensus.
Thanks all.
