    Rocky's going nuts in his cage right now and it's noon.

    So he's been active at night since I got him a black night lite, but today since I turned the day blue light on he's been roaming, climbing, "tongueing." I hope he's just hungry (he is a young growing boy). I feed him 6 days ago and was planning on waiting til tomorrow for his next feeding, but I'm going to go get him lunch now. The temp is 80 cool, 91-92 hot, humidity is about 60 according to my guage which I believe may be innacurate. Anyway, I've never seen him act like this (I've only had him 2 weeks).


    Forgot to mention... last night and today he's been climbing to the top of his cage. I'm wondering if there's not enough fresh air since I have most of the top covered with tin foil and duct tape, with a small square cut of for the lamp.

    It sounds like he might just be hungry. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I would worry more about your temperature gauge being inaccurate. Are you using a dial or strip? A digital indoor/outdoor thermometer is more accurate and a relative inexpensive solution. (wal-mart's brand is accurite)

    I find that when I go into my snake room, that there's usually at least one out and roaming in their cage. Nothing to worry about.
