Day nap ?

Are his eyes actually closed when he ‘naps’? I ask because you said he is wide awake and alert when you go over to him. Sometimes I think my guy is sleeping but he is just being still while he basks. He won’t be moving but his eyes are darting all around.
Yea I noticed his eye was closed on one side . I couldn't really see the other side . But he seems to act okay so I'm not really sure what the problem could be . I'm kinda freaking out because I don't want him suffering
 
Absolutely. Like he hesitates? I believe they do this to maintain their balance, because they climb on things all the time that could potentially not hold up. If it says the video is too large, simply try recording him on a lower resolution and for a shorter period of time. It's worth posting that on here because someone more experienced might be able to tell you if it is something to be concerned about.
Trying to post a video it says something about an extension or something

I actually just seen him close 1 eye but the other side away from me was still open .
