Feeding in the dark

[Shrimply]

Usually Granite is fed about 6 o'clock but last night it was about 10 and her viv was lighten by only a red pygmy bulb. At first she showed no interest in the fuzzie so I gave it a bit of a wiggle. Her reaction took me by complete surprise. She struck really powerfully and coiled up round and round the fuzzie before forgetting about it. Then her tail started going( she has never done this before) she is usually so good tempered. Eventually I left her to it and the mouse did disappear but I can't think about anything apart from the light which affected her reaction. She is not in shed and her last feeding went very smoothly any ideas or opinions. Thanks

Natural moonlight feeding response.
They do the same thing in the wild and usually about midnight, give or take a couple of hours.

Nothing wrong with a good feeding response.
