Just moved in.

I just moved my baby bp into a different enclosure last night and she is still wide awake and moving about (she has hides on both sides). Is that fairly normal?

bp's are normally active at night. I would think so.

It can take them several days to feel totally comfortable in a new home and get back into their regular routine of sleeping 98% of the time. It's a good idea to give them another full week of acclimation when switching cages/enclosures.

Just checking. Thank you.

Should I hold off on handling her? If so, how long should I wait.

Yes....give her a week to get used to her new home. Don't go in there or bother her at all, if you can help it. When changing/adding fresh water, try to do so when she's sleeping in her hide.

Thanks for the advice. Always a help!
