Re: Behira - 2016 Female Ivory Ghost - First BCI
1. I was away on business (with Katie accompanying) Thursday last week until late, late, Monday night/Tuesday morning (was supposed to get home on Sunday night). I spent most of yesterday cleaning up tanks and hanging with the crew. I had a dog/house sitter who checked temps etc. and I fed the geckos and Frank before I left (the snakes were due to eat yesterday, but it ended up being today). Anyway, I took Behira out yesterday and I swear, she's bigger every time I take her out after letting her be, or being away, for a few days!
Some pictures below!
2. Behira happily gobbled up a 90G F/T small rat today (I usually feed a little smaller, but that's what was left in the bag, and she's over 850G est. now and handled it easily).
I tried something new to try to prevent her striking at the acrylic doors. I put the keys for the door locks in this afternoon, well before feeding and the lights go out.
When I fed her, I took the drape off quickly, while I had the rat on the tongs, opened the tank quick, and offered. She grabbed it immediately. However, she did not strike at anything but the rat.
Don't know if this is a long-term solution, or if I got lucky. However, fumbling with the keys does not help calm her down when she wants food!
I'll keep everyone in the loop.

Nice looking girl.
Question, do they get hurt when they strike glass or an acrylic door?

They can. Behira bent teeth on two separate occasions.
However, they fell out on there own.

Re: Behira - 2016 Female Ivory Ghost - First BCI
Behira left me a nice, smelly, present, last night. I cleaned her tank and weighed her today. 890G! She eats Tuesday and is 2 years old next month. Again, doing fantastic!
Also, she and Katie got some bonding time while I was tank cleaning.
Behira loves Katie's hair and had a ball with her "bun" today! "Climbing opportunity!"
Really nice to see them spending some quality time and bonding. Katie spent time with Frank (held him and he ate out of her hand), Figment, Shayna, and Behira today. She's usually stressed during the week and not interested in helping with or holding them. Today she was relaxed and wanted to spend time with them. I love times like this, when we can bond with them together.
For me, it's usually stress release to take them out.
