The last two weeks Avalon our BP has had a larger meal and the next day we find her soaking in her water dish. The meal isn't really that big, but it is bigger than what we have been feeding her. We're using up some fuzzy mice so we have been given her 4 mice in one feeding. .. She weighs 130g her
She's not ready to shed, her last was about 3 weeks ago. I guess she could, but I don't see her eyes cloudy up... And No she doesn't have mites. We only have her and haven't used any type of bedding other than store bought Forrest Floor cypress.
We'll work on switching to one large rat pretty soon, there is a show coming up her in a few weeks and we'll get some new feeders.
Why do some BP soak after a big meal?
