Changes in Behavior After Tank Upgrade
I recently changed my BP tank from a 10 gallon to a 20 gallon long. I added some more accessories to make it seem smaller and more packed.
I used the same hides as he was using from the 10 gallon tank.
I put in a vine and all he does is wander and climb on the vine, he doesn't even go in his hides anymore.
Should I be worried? Or is he just getting used to his new home?

How long has he been doing it? If its just been a few hours or a day or two its most likely he's just exploring

its been about 2-3 days. Tomorrow is supposed to be feeding day, but I'm not sure if I should feed him before he gets accustomed to his new home

The feeding thing is up to you. Your ball will be fine if you wait a little longer between feedings. It's possible that the exploring is because he's hungry and looking for food. I don't think it would hurt to try feeding him, but its really up to you, you know your snake the best

You're right, I honestly think he's hungry because he comes toward my hand like its a rodent when I spot clean. Thank you so much though!
