A BP's sense of weather.

[anwhit]

So I've been curious about something for a while. Can BPs sense the changes in the weather?

My baby is usually very active in the evenings and I always see her cruising about. However, when it's rather freezing outside, even though the temps in her tank stay the same, she tends to hide and be in quite a mood until it starts to get warmer out.

Have you guys ever experienced mood swings in your BPs when the weather changes?

They sense barometric pressure i.e weather fronts

Mine does this. She usually has a schedule of hiding all day, then coming out to cool off in the evening, but when it's raining, she hides all day.

Im curious about this too, i live in nyc, how the heck does my BP know its below freezing outside when i keep my husbandry 100%? it never gets below 84 degrees. (ambient) in there, not to mention the hot side being at 90-91 with the uth/thermostat

Same way some people can tell if they get headaches or their joints ache.

That's pretty interesting...I was going to ask something similar. My boy has been cruising around his cage ALL night...much more active than normal. Guess he sensed the snow front we're getting? Weird.
