Gah, you had to ruin my happy parade!!!



I'm pretty anal about environmental husbandry, so i made sure that it's the same as his old tub. Hot side, cool side, humidity, hides, and substrate are identical to his old tub. I didn't see any mites on him or in the water bowl. In his old tub, he spent around 10% of his time outside his hide, but now it's more like 30%. Even when he's in his hide, i would say that 30% of that time, he has his head peeking out.



So based on your response and assuming it's not environmental husbandry issues, i'm hoping that it's either because he's looking for a mate or food. I believe he's between 1.5-2 years old. He's around 3.5 feet long and weighs 550g. I feed him 30-40g of mice every 6 days. Am i underfeeding him? Is he old enough to look for a mate?



Thanks!
