Striking out of aggression/defense/hunger? Something else?

I'll be sure to move slower with her I'm sorry, when do you think I can switch? Do you mean 'go for it' like this week? It's a pretty large tub lol, but she seems to find her way around. The 18x18x24 is what she'll be in the rest of her life so I personally think it might be better to switch sooner rather than later. I could try to set-up the tank just the same so she isn't too confused. Thanks again!

P.S I'm reading the whole posts, thanks for the advice! I don't mean to ignore everything else you said, I just don't really know what to say back lol.

If you are ready to switch her and she is in an enclosure just as big right now, you could just go ahead and do it. How she does with it, no-one knows for sure. But I don't see how it would be worse then being in a large tub.

Just be mindful of those doors on those cages. I've heard of geckos getting squshed in those door, not just in the middle, but on the sides where they swing inward. Always make sure the gecko is nowhere near the doors before opening or closing them. I agree, it would help to set it up similar to the tub, just so that it seems a bit familiar with some familiar deco.

Like Mleedee said, leave her be for a week after the move , and then continue on with handling.

That's what I would do, as well.
