Recently my 1 year old bp has been out cruising frantically at night. For the past year it would come out at night and sit under the CHE, get a drink, slither around a lil, or just sit outside of its hides.
But for the past 2 weeks its been really out cruising around trying to get out and pushing on the screen lid. Its seems to be moving faster than it normally does - speed wise. Almost neurotic. If you approach the tank it won't pay you no mind and just keeps looking for a way out. Opposite of what's its been doing for the past year.
Could it just be that the snake is feeling more secure with its older age or could something be making the snake uncomfortable in its enclosure? Im worried it's gonna get blisters on its nose from rubbing the sides and top.
In a 20 gal long sides and top covered. Temps are good. Eats weekly and sheds in one piece. Seems healthy, hides all day, but really wants out at night. Should I take it out when it wants out and let it roam about my room?
It seems neurotic lately... Any input is appreciated.
