Hi everyone~

Another question from the "newbie" - Hope you're not getting sick of me yet

We've had our baby BP for 10 days now- The first week she seem fairly active to us, and I thought a good "temperment" . Awake in the evening and morning and sleeping most of the other time. One strange thing is that she didn't seem crazy about her hides and would sleep under the greenery and sometimes just out in the open.
After reading here I learned that was a bit unusual- and that maybe I need to try some other hides. Also, that her "active" behavior might be a sign of stress- not necessarily a good thing. Another thing she did was if she was active when I would change water, etc. She would immediately try to make a break for it. We were amazed at how fast she sensed the top being open

Anyway, we fed her for the first time on Monday and she ate the F/T without hesitation. We were so happy. After she ate, she crawled into the cool side hide and stayed there for the night (or at least she was back in there the next morning) and for the whole next day.

Since eating she seems more "Skittish"-- we haven't tried to handle her or anything- we know to let her digest. But she's jumpy when we come in the tank and she hasn't been out of the hide to much and certainly not making a run for the top when its open.

Im wondering if THIS is more normal BP behavior compared to what we saw last week?? or if we should be concerned at all. Im wondering if she was just hungry? Her head movements are actually making me a bit nervous, but maybe im imagining things because ive never owned a snake before

As always- Thanks for the input and advice!
