I've had my BP for about a year now. Every feeding has been great, and the sheds were all one piece. My temps right now are for the coolside-82ish, warmside-92ish, ambient-84ish. Its a 32 quart tub with a heating pad under the warmside and an rbi hide, and the coolside has nothing but a water dish and an overhead red light shining down about a foot away from the tub to keep that side up to temp. I have had absolutely no problems thus far, but today, (or for the past 3-4 days)he has been out more than usual. He is going through a shed right now, still in the early stage though. But whenever he's in his shed cycle he usually moves about and sometimes through the water, and every time he leaves a big crap in the water and on the paper. So like always i change it, and i tried to put him back in his tub today and he just refused to go back in. So i kept picking him up and trying to get him in the tub, but he would frantically move and seem to try to get away, so therefore i know he's stressed about something? I'm just confused after all this time with everything fine,why is he acting so stressed. I figured it would be something in my husbandry but my temps, humidity are fine as far as i can tell right now. I have an accurite digital for the warmside, the basking spot, ambient. And a flukers digital for the coolside. And my temps are controlled by herpstat.
thank you guys, please help me out
