Yes, Chondros have been catpured on the ground crossing roads in their native habitat. From my understanding the Island of Biak is not as densely vegitative, shorter growing trees/shrubs. So...this locality type may even move more on the ground (getting from one batch of trees/shrubs) than other localties. Check your temps. are they adiquate? He/She maybe thermoregulating as you stated by going into the water. Oh, remember...Chondro are nocturnal, so...movement at night is the norm. Good Luck

:Since a few time i note a strange behaviour of my female chondro . During the nightime she keep cruising on the ground , a half of its body in the water , acting in a cool manner just like searching for the way out and don't caring if i'm around or even if i open the cage !
:The temps are all rights and she doesn't look like nervous or whatever.
:- ? -
:Do chondros live even on the ground in the wild ?

:....or i got a Painted Green Ball Python ? lol
