View Full Version : A Comfortable Place to Sleep

For whatever reason, my new little Uro loves to sleep upright against the corner of its cage. I am guessing it sleeps this way right after eating as every time I pick it up from this position its belly is really full. It looks uncomfortable with its tail all pushed up into the spine, but it does not seem to be a bother for it.

Thats unusual. Does it have a place to wedge itself and hide?

My little guy doesn't like to use his hides ether. Instead me just wedges himself behind them or sticks his head under a rock.

That's a really weird sleeping position though. It's like he was going to start glass dancing but fell asleep instead.

It has plenty of hiding places. I am reminded of Sid the Sloth in Ice Age trying to sleep on the stump, no matter how uncomfortable it looks, he just passed out.

Michael, he is just sleeping to the beat of his own lullaby.
He is a cutie. (even if he does have those leg things)
