I just got my BP on 7/12/15, I let her acclimate all week as she really loved staying in her cold hide (this one is one entrance in and out and super dark) at first. She progressively got more active around the tank throughout the week (great news). I attempted to feed on Saturday 7/18/15; I was nervous because I was told she was feeding live before I got her and I wanted to make a switch to F/T mice, then when she hits 100g get her on the F/T rats I got from the expo. I dangled the food in front of the hide and she didn't come out or strike with the room very dark, so I left in in front of the hide thinking I would take the mouse out if she didn't take it by morning. Well within minutes she was taking that mouse down! I think she just needed to investigate since it was her first F/T meal. Afterwards she went back in her very dark hide and for all day Sunday she was hanging out on the UTH (90deg) digesting, looking super comfortable. So, my question to you all is do you think it's ok to take her out and handle her for a couple minutes today to get her acclimated to being handled? I'm assuming yes since she doesn't seem stressed, has eaten, and its been over 24hrs since last meal. Any recommendations are appreciated!
