One of my leos is a male bell. He is the most docile leo I have. He is pretty lazy, kind of lays on you doesnt move much unless he is uncomfortable, preferrs to wait for crickets to come to him instead of chargeing out and hunting them all down. Today I reached into his tub to put in a refilled mealworm dish and he comes chargeing out of his humid hide and snaps at my hand. Well I was suprised and he is kind of looking at me. I go to adjust put the bowl back in its place and adjust his calcium dish and he snaps at me again.
What would cause this? I have recently hooked some flexwat up to a big board and put several MCBL tubs on it for extra enclosures because I am getting several new leos in a couple weeks. They are going to be nicer looking than him so I took him and put him in one of the tubs freeing up an actual tank for one of the newcomers. Now his tub is next to a females where before his tank was pretty much isolated from other leos but I put some cardboad between the tubs to make it not so open looking for them. Thats the only recent change. No bad temps. I dont think its was he thougth there was food because he came chargeing out and pretty much attacked my hand. He normaly wont go after food and it has to walk right in front of his face.
