Behaviour Advice Please

Hi, I am after some advice on Hermann behaviour. I have a 3 yr old Hermann, I picked him up on Saturday. He’s eating well and digging and climbing as I had expected. He seems happy in his new home.


Yesterday when he was out in the house he started to move strangely, he was moving his back end from side to side, quite erratically, and trying to walk at the same time. I wondered if it was an itch or something and gave him a quick bathe. He seemed ok then, but he was doing it again this morning. This time in his enclosure, I bathed him again and again he seemed fine. I don’t know if I’m worrying for no reason, but I just want him to be a happy little man…

Any advice??
