    Gio, thank you for posting this thread. I'm glad you and Wallace are doing ok!

    I can be added to the list of having animals acting differently recently. My two retics have only been slightly more active than normal with just cruising their enclosure. Jack did recently start hunting the day after a feed instead of sleeping it off.

    The most noticeable change has been my eldest carpet. Her enclosure is the closest to an outside door and with the most ventilation. Normally she is content to sleep in her hide or hang in a hunting position. The past week she has been more active than the retics, poking at her cage. Generally just being more inquisitive and actually coming out to explore when I leave her door open instead of being content in her cage.

    My only other snake that is noticeably different recently is one of my corns. This guy is typically shy and was a somewhat finicky eater when he was younger. Last week a few days after feeding I was spot cleaning his tank and changing water. He shot out from under his hide across the tank, got my hand and started to coil. I just left him there and went on with cleaning his tank till he realized I wasn't food.

    A lot of my hobbies deal with animals and their behavior. I would say weather has a big impact on animals. Anything from temperature, barometric pressure, to wind speed and direction. Moon phases also play major a part in animals activity, which we just had a full moon last week.
