    Restless BP?

    My BP has been unusually restless for the past couple days.Usually he hides all day and comes out around 9 pm, but since thursdayish he's been in and out of his hides much more frequently than usual. His temps haven't changed (90 or slightly above on the warm side, 82ish on the cool side) so I don't think that's causing the problem. Any ideas? Thanks

    Sounds hungry. When was your last feed? What do you feed? And what is your BP's weight?

    And Humidity?

    Usually thursday is dinner day for him. I've only had him for a month and have been feeding mice during that time. This past thursday I tried a rat (his breeder suggested switching him to rats when he got settled in here)...he struck, but the rat fell off the tongs and he wouldn't take it again.

    He is more than likely hungry then.... He will relax more than likely when he eats again....

    Yeah he is hungry then. I would either feed him if he is your only BP if you dont mind switching feeding day. Or just wait till this Thursday and feed him. Its really up to you.

    Yeah, he's my only one, it would be pretty easy to switch the feeding day. I'll try again tonight or tomorrow then. Thanks :]
