two problems

first i have 2 terrarium setups and i have put a uth on both of them and i can not get them to stay on.. they keep falling off like the adhesive isnt holding them onto it.. anyone else have this problem?

second i have a bp that shed half her shed (bottom) but the top part of her body has not shed.. she started trying to get the shed off last saturday night so its been a week and i tried the pillow case / warm hand cloth last night trick with no luck.. any ideas?

thanks

1) Yes, buy some aluminum tape and use that to stick it to the bottom on the outside of the tank. You have a thermostat right?

2) Try giving her a soak in luke warm water and letting her run through your hands, or just stick her back in and let her get it off herself. Have you fixed the humidity issue?

I'd say tape the UTH to the bottom of the tank.

Maybe a soak for the BP. I've had one bad shed and just lightly rubbed in a downward motion with a damp warm towel and my bp got the hang of what I was trying to do. Stuck shed was off in no-time :)
