I switched accidentally when fixing a fallen off heatpad) So I think its because of that OR I have been feeding a bit less as she grows bigger. In the past month I have been feeding her once every one and a half weeks, instead of every week.

    Do you think it could be one of these is why she is cranky? or do you have any other thoughts?
    Now take this with a grain of salt as I am no BP expert and just getting back into the hobby after a long break. Read that as I may be wrong. It seems to me that switching the hotspot in the enclosure messed with your snake a bit and you'll either need to put it back the way it was or give her time. This may be especially true if her hide is not where she is used to it in relation to the heat. I don't think it's the feeding schedule itself, but it's probably not helping that much either. Just my two cents. If I am truly wrong, mods feel free to delete this.
