    BP wont come over to the warm side.

    So i have my new enclosure and bubba wont go over to the warm side, he is always on the cool side, the Stats are, warm side 88-90 cool side 78-80 and humidity is 60 percent. What is he doin? Could he just not be used to the normal temps because he grew up in a poorly heated tank? here is a pic

    Re: BP wont come over to the warm side.

    He looks like he is checking out the temps!

    Not sure if I read correctly but it seemed like this is a new enclosure so a bit of time to adjust may be needed(?). Mine has been in shed for this week and has stayed on the cooler side as well., possibly due to the humidity feeling better there... How long in the new enclosure? I am sure he will adjust to where he likes it...

    Not sure how long he's been in his new home, but like stated above... probably just playing the Little Red Riding Hood game and trying out all of his new beds.

    It took my girl a few weeks before she thermo-regulated on a regular basis.
    Even now, some days she'll stay in her cold hide for several days.
    I wouldn't be too concerned unless he continues to avoid the warm hide in a few weeks; especially if this is a new home.
