Bob (my female) has a habit of sort of doing this little front leg/shoulder pumping/bobbing action. She tends to do it when she's not that warm, or when she's just been put down somewhere (e.g. returned to her indoor enclosure). It's almost like she's pumping herself up! Her front legs stay sort of half tucked in and the elbow/shoulder region (hard to tell!) sort of moves in an out in small motions. I wondered if it was something to do with respiration, or perhaps a way she enhances her circulation? She's always done it - ever since she was little.
Has anyone else noticed this behaviour and any ideas of it's function (and also what the correct name for it is!!)
thanks
Nancy
