Hello BP.net!

Well, Ally is doing quite wonderful after a month of ownership. She's about to have her 4th feeding this evening and I'm certain she is thrilled with anticipation! A couple questions from this new owner after a month in.

She seems to be in good health, sticks under her hide pretty much 90% of the time (it's the warmest and humidity is highest in there). I assume this is normal. We waiting about 2 weeks and then started getting her out 3-4 times a week. The wife holds her and Ally seems pretty OK with wrapping around her hands, slithering the tongue and investigating the nearby ottoman. After about 20 minutes, we notice that she seems to get cold (I keep it quite cool in the house, even during winter)) and return her to her home.

The water dish has been dormant pretty much. I have never seen her enter the dish or take a drink or bathe (granted I'm not home during the day, so I have no idea what she does during that time (although it is the time the heat lamp is on, so I just assume she chills out in the hide). One other thing we have noticed is she has not started to shed. Is this a problem?

Hot side is 87-89 degrees with 50% humidity.
Cool side is 72-75 degrees with 44% humidity.

We don't notice any mites and other than the not shedding thing, we think everything is A-OK!

Any suggestions or comments about what I've written, especially on the shedding part?

Appreciate any feedback!
