getting worried... please explain
hey all.... my bp has been acting normal for the most part. he is eating fine and acting fine. but recently its been a little colder out side so i would expect him to be in his hot side hide... this is not the case. he has been in his cool side hide for days at a time. he will go into the hot side for only a few minutes and then he goes right back to the cool side. the hot side is set at 91.5 and being controled by a herpstat.... every time he does go into the hot side he pushes all the substrate away and sits directly on the glass...... any one know what the heck is going on. should i be worried....
Re: getting worried... please explain
same exact hide being used... bought them at reptilebasics. same size and everything. temps are checked by herpstat and a temp gun. Also he tends to pee/poop in his hides and then he wont go in that specific one... (i dont blame him) but i check his hides every day and they are both clean.... when i hold him he seems cold to my body temp..... IDK
Re: getting worried... please explain
My snakes are usually always on the cool side of their tubs. The only time I really see them on the warm side is right after eating a meal. As long as your temps are not to hot and the snake is eating, urinating, and defecating, then I don't think you have anything to worry about.
Re: getting worried... please explain
he has not shed for about a month... so maaybe he is getting ready to.... and ohhh yessss he pees and poops on a regular basis. he has no problem in that department. i even caught him drinking water earlier this week....
