Re: Anyone else experience this? Always in cool side hide?
out of my 3 BPs, my normal male is always on the cool side, and the other two are always on the warmer side. Not sure what it has to do with, they have the same temeratures, but as long as you are providing the option for them to be on either side you're fine :)
It is good to hear you watch him/her so closely too, always nice to see a caring BP owner :D

One thing I am thinking of as far as the roaming is that last week I fed him a smaller meal than usual because that is all that I had. He has been eating 80g rats and last week I gave him a 40g. That being said I am thinking maybe he has been out roaming the past two evenings because he's hungry and he gets fed on Saturday nights which is tonight. He seems nice and relaxed now with his head poking out of his cool side hide. I am going to ge feed him now and i'll report back with the results. If he doesnt eat that will be a first and i'll know I am dealing with a potential problem.
Thanks again for all the feedback everyone.
Perhaps the newer ones are warmer than the old ones??
Glad to hear he ate so well! I definately tend to see increased activity on weeks following smaller meals.
