Hi, I'm new to this site. About 2 weeks ago I got a baby normal ball python. This morning I woke up to her freaking out and quickly slithering in an abnormal violent fashion through her tank. From one shelter that is on the cool side to the other shelter on the warm side while consistently burying her head into the dirt.
She has yet to shed the skin on her head and eye caps. I've fed her about once a week. At the reptile store, where I got her, they were feeding her pinkies. Once I got her, I started feeding her fuzzy mice from PetCo. Most recent feeding was last night. Last night, before feeding, I moved her from a 5.5 gallon tank to a 10 gallon tank and also added a small heat pad under her cave on the warm side. The temperature is telling me it's about 85 degrees with about 50% humidity. I'm also using coconut fiber as the soil.
Can anyone help me in understanding what is going on and/or what I should do? This is her first time doing this.
