WooHoo, she took her first mouse!!
So i got a new BP 2 weeks ago. Tried to feed her 1 week after and no go, that was with pinky mice. Today i tried again and she took a hopper mouse! She is only bout 13 inches, maybe abit longer. She didnt strike hard, kinda grabbed it by the neck then i let it go, took it in to her hide and ate it. Iv also noticed she likes her cold hide better than the hot hide. Hot side is 90-94,measured with probe under sub, and cool side is 80-84 or so. Will she be ok to digest if she stays on the cool side?
Re: WooHoo, she took her first mouse!!
It should be fine but hides sound a bit to hot.
Re: WooHoo, she took her first mouse!!
The temps sounds fine, the air temp could be a littler warmer, and my snake digests on the cooler side too.
Re: WooHoo, she took her first mouse!!
Are both of your hides the same size? If not, she may favoring the hide on the cool side.

No, the temps sound fine. Per the caresheet, the temps should be in the 88-94 range.

Maybe i should switch up the warm side hide to smaller?? Will it stress her if i change the hide?

You should have two identical hides so she doesn't favor one over the other because she likes it more.

So if i change it, will it stress her? Last thing i wana do is stress her out.
