Odd BP behavior

Or is it?

So I have had a female regular ball for 7 weeks. She’s amazing, friendly, eats well etc.

40 gallon glass exoterra tank.
Tops are covered in foil.
CHE and UTH - both on thermostats

Cool side: 77/60%
Hot side: 83/55%

Substrate with heat gun: 83-88 depending on where I pint it.

Both sides covered in black. Back in styrofoam.

Substrate is reptisoil & chip

Change water every 2 days and spit clean. Change tank every 6 weeks.

Feed her a hopper. She is 4-5 months old. They said she was 2-3 months when I got her.

She has shed 1x perfectly since having her.

She was hiding on Both sides, moving at night, etc. Her enclosure has 2 hides, 3 bushes, huge tree shaped log in middle, stick to climb on and bask if needed etc. Tons to hide and much clutter.

Lately at night she hides or moves around which is normal. But every morning for 2-3 hrs she glass climbs all over. Up the glass, down, sideways etc. She’s not scratching and doesn’t have mites.

Local keeper says it’s normal or she may be hungry but I fed her Monday.

Is it normal?
Should I increase to small mouse?

Nothing has changed in the tank so it’s just odd. She’s hiding less during the day so it seems way off but can’t figure out why.

Or am I over thinking all this and she’s just exploring and still getting used to enclosure.

Help lol.

I vote overthinking. Pics would help us identify anything that may be bothering her that you're not seeing. You can find instruction on posting pics here.

I was thinking that. She’s got everything dialed in and nothing has changed. I spoke to a few keepers here and they all said nothing she’s just exploring or maybe try larger mouse next feeding. She could want more food.

They said just handle her less right now, keep an eye out for anything else.

I will post pics in a few.

She does this all the way up, then down, moves across the bottom glass, then up down and around. So far all morning, no hiding.

If you're able to, I would try to get some pics of entire enclosure, that way we can see the whole thing and look for any potential signs or things that would help better understand what's going on. :)

For how long has she been doing this?

About a week. I fed her Monday, day early as I thought she was super hungry. She hid for maybe 24hrs (which usually it’s 3 days) then out, no buldge - seemed digested and back at the glass lol.

Cool and warm hide, water, bushes, log, stick etc . She’s hiding behind the hot hide right now, not in it - R side looking at this.
