Hi guys, so i've had my BP for around 4 months now and i recently switched his substrate from aspen mulch to Cypress mulch because of humidity issues. when he was in the aspen he was acting like a normal ball python where he was sleeping all day and active during the very early hours of the morning. but now that ive gone and switched his substrate hes been active day and night climbing on every little thing in his cage and generally exploring every nook and cranny available to him. its not a heating issue because the cold and hot sides are still at their 82 and 93 degrees that i started my BP in in the first place. He still eats normally and is completely fine with being handled (he actually seems to enjoy being out sometimes) im just a bit freaked out by his sudden change in behavior and want to know if anyone else has had this happen with their slithery companions.
Thanks in advance for any replies!
