So I think I have a sexually confused russian. He is very male! He's flashed me to prove it and boy was that a surprise. Now he's acting as if he's female getting ready to lay eggs. I'm confused. He keeps digging burrows with his back legs and backing up into them and sitting for hours. One day I decided to sift through the dirt after he moved just out of curiosity and all I found was poop. Is this normal?

If he lives alone, he's probably just confused. Get him a rock the same size as he is and maybe he'll take out his sexual frustration on the rock.

Haha, poor guy. All these males and rocks stories are making me wonder if I'm really hoping my hatchling will be a boy, lol.
