    your temps are a little high, ideal temperatures are 78-82 on the cool side and 88-92 on the hot side.

    ^x2. Cool the whole enclosure down a bit and she should head over to the warm side.

    I appreciate the kind words but there are far more knowledgable/experienced people on this site than me. I can help you with the basics, but I'm still learning the more advanced stuff myself.

    Anyway I'll be glad to help anyone in any way that I can.
