    If you just put her in, then she is most likely exploring. Some are going to say that your enclosure is too big, but as long as you are sure to fill the empty space and can maintain temperatures then you are fine. If she ends up having problems feeding, then there could be issues with the set-up, but since you just put her in I'd say exploring.

    It's too early to tell. I think if she's still doing it in a few days, or during the day I'd get a smaller tub. 90 qts is huge for a 260 gram ball...

    Thats a huge container. Most people only keep adult females in 41qt tubs...

    Just because its 90 qts does not mean that its floorspace is larger than that of a 41 qt

    yeah, i have it on my shelving and its not that much bigger than the tub my male is in right now(not sure of qt's), the only difference is in the length. It the was the only decent size one that the local Walmart and you know how things always look smaller in the store
