Are BP's sensitive to ventilation? As in can be too much/too little? Those particular cages have a good bit of airflow, more than an aquarium or tub would.

I don't get these guys when you upgrade them to new tanks. I've seen a complete change in behavior since I went from a 10gal to a 40gal breeder, with enough foliage and driftwood/humid-hides/etc. to be a virtual jungle. For the first couple of weeks he seemed normal as usual....then things changed. He used to always stay in his hot side during the day, and come out at night and bask or lounge around. Now he only stays in his middle hide (it's only around 83-84'F there, MOVE guy!) even though they're identical, rarely comes out at night, and has gotten extremely food aggressive. His temps and humidity are fine, but he's acting like he's starving. Three days ago I put a rat on top of his cage while I took the clips off, and he was rising up and striking at the lid to get to the rat! It was a fairly large rat too, but ever since then if I pass the cage or go to check on his temps he comes right out like he's waiting for food, and I have to be really careful sticking my hand in there. He hasn't tagged me yet, but I'm wondering if I should just feed him more often and ride out his sudden hunger-craving?
