Daddy's little girl has a healthy appetite!

Weird, that's what my plan is. Monday her food should be digested good, so I'm gonna start short handling sessions. I planned on holding her for a bit, then when I put her back in, I was gonna face her to the hot hide, hoping she'll want to get away from the big bad creature that takes her from her home, and run to the nearest hiding spot, being the warm hide. :)

Sounds like you should just turn off the lamp and call it a day. :)

So do you think 88 and 75 are okay temps at night? Since she seems glued to the cool side, I don't wanna have the cool side go down too much. :(

As long as it doesn't get lower than that I think it'll be alright.

I wouldnt suggest leaving your bp at 75 for extended periods of time ( days on end ), but you should be fine. Temp drops at night are normal anyway. Its not 90 degrees all the time ;). Sounds like you are doing a great job! Keep up the good work :)

I think 75 is fine for an overnight drop, but not for an all-the-time cool side temp. Breeders regularly cycle their adults through lower temps than those to simulate natural winter.

congrats on ur bp's first feed with u and guess what i am going through my first shed with reeses i am so excited. u are gonna freak when ya see the body color whae they are getting ready to shed man.

Yep, I can't wait for her first shed with me. I'll probably stress over it, worrying that I don't have the correct humidity and stuff. But I'm sure it'll be an easy shed. Like people say, the first shed is usually more reflected on the previous owners care. If that's true, I'm expecting a one piece shed. The breeder I got her from is great and knows what she's doing. :)
