So a year and a half ago, I got three d. auratus, they live in a 24x18x18 medium wide exo-terra fully planted, drainage layer and all that terrarium. I had 2 males and 1 female. One of the boys was always really skinny, but he started getting skinnier and skinnier and recently passed away. I'm not sure what the problem was, he seemed to be eating as much as the other two...
So they have always been fairly shy, and in the past few months they've started getting bolder, and coming out for short hops if people were standing there as well as eating in front of us more. But since the little guy passed, the remaining two have been way bolder! They go for hops all around, they sit out in their puddle, and are basically out all the time. Is it weird that they are happier with just the two of them? Should I only have gotten two to begin with? I never saw any aggression, but could that have been happening, and been part of the problem with the little guy?
