Re: what does it mean when
Apollo does that a bit when he's "remodeling" his tank. Spyro is prob too small to move things though so I'm not sure?

Re: what does it mean when

Maybe he is itchy? He may also be getting ready to shed but not quite there yet. Or he might just be weird. They are like that some times.
