I've read some sheets that suggest BC's sleep patterns are variable, so-called "semi-nocturnal". shenanigans!! Although i occasionally take him out during the day, my boa is never out of his hide when the light is on, whereas if i peek in on him late night with the mini flashlight he'll be climbing. But more frustrating is that i usually take him out around 9:00 PM for playtime, and he's sort of into it, but mostly just placid as i watch tv, then around 11:00 to 11:30 when i'm ready to hit the sack, he suddenly springs to life and gets all active and playful. Now what am i supposed to do, NOT stay up till 1:00AM with my suddenly social snake??
Has anyone ever tried messing with their snake's light cycle? Mine happens to be in the basement where i am in complete control of his light, i do 12 on 12 off, around 10:30 - if i made the sun rise and set earlier (damn, i feel powerful) do we think he'd "wake up" earlier in the evening?
