Robos' strange habit

[karlh]

Finally, I managed to get a pair of Robo boys. They were just over a month old. After couple of weeks I saw them squabbling over their food. Although there were 2 bowl. So, in the end, I separated them. They have a nice self contained age.
Couple of weeks ago I saw one of them, pushing with him bum, a a quantity of paper bedding, as if to barricade himself in, preventing any access. A day or two later, he moved the paper to a different location. Some weeks later, I saw him brother doing exactly the same thing, in one of his tubes. Just a passing phase, I guess..

It's just them making a nice home and nesting by moving their bedding. They enjoy doing it. They also alter the nest and ventilation depending on how hot or cold it is.
