behavior changes?

[little98dime]

Hey everyone. As of late my leo has been acting strange. She has been trying to escape especially when I am working in her tank or trying to feed her. She will actually try to use my arm to get out. Also, she won't eat in front of me. She has also stopped pooing in one corner. She will flip flop from one to the opposite side.
She is in a 20 long, 95 on the hot side, 1 humid hide, 1 hot hide, and 1 cold hide. She is still eating, just not when I am around. My main concern is her obsession with escaping. Any ideas?

Sounds like ovulation behavior. How old is she?

 

[little98dime]

Only 3 to 4 months old.

Well that rules that out..I'm not sure why her behavior would suddenly change.

As far as escaping goes...I guess you just have to be careful about it. Why does she want to escape? Does she just like to climb? If that's the case, maybe you could put up a textured wall. Or try to take her out more often?

I'm not sure why she is trying to get out. I take her out almost nightly to say hello and get her use to me holding her. she did escape earlier this past week and in the process of it fell about 3-4 feet from her cage. I was at work at the time, so all I can do is guess how she got out.but ever since she has been acting really strange.
