I wasn't entirely sure where to post this. health? enclosure?...so I opted for general, ha
About 2 months ago buddy got a new viv, which he loves.
More recently i made him a log sculpture from floor to ceiling of the viv, and he's become obsessed with it! He'll climb to the top and very rarely come down, extremely happy to be on his log.
I was fine with this up until the other day. I opened the viv to let buddy out and clean up his environment. He wouldn't move from his log. I pried him away from it, he ran right back into his viv and clung onto it. Countless times.
In the end I took his log structure, and him out of the viv...he was perfectly happy with that.
Does anyone have any advice on how to ween him from his 'log addiction'?
I've put him back into his vivarium without it, but he's not very happy when it's out of sight, I've had to leave it within his viewing range to keep him from stressing out!
