    Is my guy stressed out?
    I read on another thread earlier this week that a BP that doesn't hide is stressed out. Since then, I've noticed that my guy hasn't been in his hide as often as he used to be.

    I put some new decorations (deer antlers) in his tank several weeks ago and ever since then it has not been uncommon to find him in the corner of his tank balled up underneath some of the antler. He still uses his normal hide that his heating pad is underneath too but I don't think he's using it as much. I guess its about 50/50 with where he likes to spend his time.

    His temps and humidity all seem normal and he definitely doesn't have any issues eating or pooping. He still seems to enjoy exploring when I handle him and hasn't shown any signs of aggression either. Is he stressed out or am I just over-thinking it?
