I've tried feeding her in a feed box and in her cage. Her cage is made of clear plastic, so would a switch to an opaque container perhaps help this? She has a hide and she is able to burrow under the paper to essentially hide wherever she pleases. She is constantly patrolling her cage and seems very eager to escape any time I open the top. And I have left her alone with both live and dead prey items for a prolonged period, so I really don't know what the issue is.

I live in florida, is there ever a problem of too much humidity? Its pretty much always in the high 70s or 80s. It hasn't caused any problems with my other snakes, and really not much I can do to reduce the humidity I'm afraid.
