active after feeding

[Sophiax]

So tonight I fed 2 smallish adult mice (f/t) to my BP – she’s about 330 grams – and instead of curling up to digest, she’s roaming around her tank, doing her usual cruising/stretching to the top/attempting escape/tongue flicking business.

Does this mean she’s still hungry?

Temps and humidity are normal as always (89 warm side, 82 cool side, 50% humidity).

I’m still learning how to read their behavior, thanks in advance! These forums are incredibly helpful :-)

Sometimes they stay in hunt mode for a while and it sounds like yours was doing that as two smallish mice would be more than enough for the snake's weight!

I would suggest bumping the warm side up. It is standard practice to keep the warm side at (at least) 90F and more common still to keep the warm temps at 92-94F.
