Our female veiled has been moving around her cage a lot the last 2 days. She will crawl down one side of the screen walk around on the floor and then crawl up the other side and just keep going until she is thirsty or cold, then she goes to either her basking spot for a while or where the dripper is. she keeps her normal colors most of the time but sometimes when on the ground she gets her dark spots and sometimes strips. She is only almost 4 months old and still eats like a machine so I don't think she is looking for a spot to lay her eggs yet but I am getting a laying bed ready for her later today just in case. I think she might just want out because we had a free range habiscus tree for her that we had to get rid of cause it wasn't doing so good. Is she just trying to get out to her tree or do you think it could be something else? Nothing else has changed except she doesn't have a free range at the moment.

Did she recently go through a shed? or is she about to? my cham gets cage fever when hes shedding.
 
Mine did the same thing just about 4 days after a shed. I thought it was the coolest thing ever, kept saying to myself "He's getting more comfortable with his home!" "He's not afraid anymore!" This was also at the 4 month stage. It oly lasted a couple of days for me...then he stopped. Everything from upside down on the top, to the sides crawling to the bottom to the other side and back. It was fun to watch, but disappeared.

Didnt think anything of it, he was healthy and still is....Cage fever due to shedding. ha...and i thought i was just lucky to have a crazy cham

yea I thought something was off with my guy when he started cage cruisin after his shed. but he must have jsut felt so good he wanted to move! He just started to outgrow his cage, so now hes getting moved into his adult cage in about a month.
I gues they move during and after a shed to get the dead skin off and then cuz they feel so good!

Just moved mine into its new cage. Couldnt deal with the no drainage, zipper, and flimsy PVC tubes anymore.

.....man, I wish i could shed some skin to feel that good
