Still eating though. Very similar to your description, but I didn't think Rosie's were considered burrowers at all.... I'm finding it pretty amusing actually, even if she is destroying all the nice decorating I did - if it makes her happier I guess it works! If this is the same as mine, it's because there are strands of webbing right up against the water - it acts like a siphon. If I rub my finger around the top of the dish to break the contact, it stops happening (until she webs it/climbs over it again).
Oooh....that would be even cooler than a molt!!! Mine is a pet store (WC) girl who has yet to molt, so it certainly would be a possibility for mine. Would be interesting if the OP also has a WC/pet store T who has yet to molt too. Could be an interesting surprise!
I love your descriptions!My RCF Rosie just started doing the same sort of thing in the last few weeks! She's been relatively settled and besides webbing her floor some hadn't really done any digging, rearranging, or extensive webbing. But in the past few weeks she has dug all her substrate out to the bottom of the cage under her hide, torn up all the fake plants that she had left in place for months, drained her water dish (I've never seen her do it, but somehow it gets dumped into the substrate overnight - its very wide and shallow, and not tipped over), and she's just stuck herself underground now, she's put some webbing (not a ton, but a bit) across her entrance to her hide too (though she dug a tunnel out under the side of it)
Guess it might be a time of year, daylight changes, etc thing. I like the idea that it might be early premolt though. She hasn't really darkened at all, but if its a sign she might be starting premolt then I'm excited. Can't wait for her to molt.
But I totally understand the idea of "she's lost her marbles" - seems like Flower has lost her mind too, she went from pet rock who threatens forceps to uber bulldozer!
That's a great observation! Hope I remember it...
Hmmm--you've just made the idea of store-bought WC's a whole lot more interesting...

Need to keep a closer eye on my girl now...and work on getting the stupid pinheads that hatched out out of there faster too, just in case (my little pinhead trap does seem to be working though...)
