I got a BP about three weeks ago and let him get acclimated before feeding/handling. However, during the day he is pretty nice, still a little testy, but nothing out of the ordinary. But when night rolls around, even with the lights on in the house, he gets in a striking position upwards towards the screen top, even if there is no one near the cage and will strike if you leave your hand over the screen long enough. Its like a Jekyll and Hyde scenario...very strange.

He is a smidge over 3 feet long. His tank is a 25 gallon long tank, two hides (one is a half log over heating pads kept near 90 degrees, and the other is a big Tupperware container with a hole cut in the lid and half full of clean water, which he loves soaking in, kept at room temperature-ish) there is aspen bedding with a climbing log....

One of my possible solutions is that i don't have a day light, or a red night lamp. I have a buddy who has neither and his BP is awesome, but i do understand that all BP's have different attitudes.

Any suggestions or similar situations?!?!
