I would personally move Gerald or whatever snake is in the smaller cage. I dont think stuffing Phyllis in a T8 is going to do anything but make her push more. When i put Caesar in my 'cleaning T8' that i use for the active snakes when i dont have time to watch them and clean the cage, Caesar really isnt happy about it and after about 10 mins of looking around, he starts pushing on the doors to get out for pretty much the full 30 mins it takes to clean his cage.

Imo, not the best idea.

Actually if you have exhausted all other options it is a good idea. Some, but not all do better in a smaller cage. Females may react to another male, but it’s usually the males that react to pheromones given off by the female. Maybe your girl is a boy and doesn’t like Gerald.

Hard to say at this point but if you don’t have anything else to try, try a smaller cage and see if it helps. Maybe it will maybe it won’t. And as far as food, there is no wild retic that eats constantly they just don’t. I think you are good on the feeding end.
