Hi guys, I have a female crested gecko that is about 7 years old, but I've only had her for about 8 months and I have never had a reptile before that. She has Always been asleep during the day and awake at night, I've never ever seen her out of her hiding spot in daylight.
Today I moved her substrate around, which I do sometimes to avoid it going stagnant, though I haven't done it now for a few weeks and her tank is up for a cleaning too, but I'm waiting for the plantation soil to come in the mail. then I put her pangea in, misted a little and left her with the lights on. This is not new for her.
I walk back in an hour or so later and she's walking around on the back wall of her tank up by the mesh in full daylight.
NEVER happened before.
Im terrified I stirred up some bad shit when I moved the substrate around and she's up there to get better air or something.
Even when the lights go out and its nighttime, she usually hangs around for quite a while just outside her hide before going anywhere, now she was just straight up active. About two-four hours earlier than usual, in daylight.
Anyone have a clue whats going on or advice what I should do??
