Hello, I noticed some odd behavior today in my 8mo old panther that I think has been going on for a while. Lately I’ve been hearing some crunching noises. It sounded very similar to a BSF being eaten. I have put more in than I believe have been eaten so I wasn’t that surprised. Then days or maybe a week or two later I heard it again. I remembered I had a dead plant I forgot to remove, so I thought maybe he was crunching on leaves, oddly. I was hoping to catch him doing it, before taking the plant out, and today I did. However, I saw him chewing on soil amendment! It’s this recycled glass stuff used in hydroponics and others things. I’ve used it for amending soil for a long time. Most of my plants have bigger rocks, but I forgot on this one I took them out and never put them back. When I got in his business, panicking to try and take it out, he spit out a piece of it.
Any thoughts about what this could be? Did he think it was food? Are they known for chewing things?
He’s had normal poop in the last few days, so I don’t believe there’s any impaction, and he acts totally normal.
