I just joined the forum and just yesterday said how wonderful my 2 month old was doing. I awoke tonite at 4 AM to find the velcro I had used to mount the thermometer had came lose and fallen off due to the heat in the tank. AND of course, she was stuck with her entire chin to the glass where the adhesive was!
I used the only oil i had, canola, to gently pry her off wit h a Qtip. I did a through exam and no skin tears THANK GOD! I did try and give her a warm soak and dried her off gently, but can not get all the oil off of her. Any chance this will harm her? She did not care for soaking in the least!
I did get all the adhesive out. God I feel so stupid! I am PRAYING she will be ok after that kind of stress. She did seem to be fairly calm afterward and when I put her back in the tank, she went around it some time before going into her hide. I fully expected her to dart right to that!
