So I got access to a 5 gallon tank, but the bp I got turned out to be longer than I originally thought. I had it in the 5 gallon for about 2 weeks. The bp length fully stretched out is a little longer than the length of tank which around 16 inches. The first day I got it, it was constantly roaming & climbing the sides of the glass. By the 2nd it settled down for about 5 - 6 days then started again, so I fed it a small mice (the store recommended it). It ate and returned to normal for a few days, then started roaming again and has been doing it constantly now. it occasionally rests in the cool side hide which is a half log (didn't know at first this was a bad idea) and never seems to mess with the hot side. for the hot side it's just a bowl. at the time I didn't know 2 hides were mandatory. The water bowl is just the container it came in. I'll be upgrading everything soon. I'm just worried about my snake constantly roaming and trying to escape. maybe the enclosure is too small? The temps are good, humidity is fine. I have a reptitherm uth plugged into a thermostat. Thermometer for ambient temp and a temperature gun. Why might my snake be stressed? I feel like it's too small and I plan on moving it to a sterilite tub (single tub, no rack) with latches but I don't know what size. Any help? Don't hold back. I'm trying to get it right!
