Re: Lazy Layla tricked me!
Also to note, she refused to eat for them the day before I bought her, she had a regular poop the morning after her fist night home. She has only diarrhead 3 times since.

Well I only bumped it up a little because a few times I've picked her up out of her hot hide she was felt cool to the touch and she had already been in there for quite awhile. Also I checked with an infared temp gun and the substrate was only about 82*F. She had dirreaha the 3 poops and I know they need heat for digestion, so i thought it might not be warm enough. I bumped it down to 96*f under the substrate. Her cool side fluctuates from 75*f at night to 82*f late afternoon.

I'm switching my guy over to rats within the next few weeks, hopefully his transition goes as smoothly as yours seemed to, and hopefully just as comical.:gj:
Haha ya, I guess she expected me to get it started for her by placing it in her mouth. So glad the wife was recording. I need to get a phone holder or something so I can record and feed at the same time but still have smooth still video. Autofocus sucks with 60fps.
I expected trouble for sure but was so happy she didn't care. She has always ate immediately, even when shedding. But since I started offering her the right size prey every 4-5 days, she runs off to her hot hide and we won't see her again till next feed or when I get her out. Before during the first 3-4 weeks she was always out climbing on everything poking around the top lid and getting wrapped around the temp cords. Eventually I hot glued them in place and got her feeding back on track. She is still calm as ever and never struck out in defense or been in a defensive position from what I can tell.

aye still no good, you need to regulate the temp on the glass, not the substrate. She can burrow if she needs the full 90-92, she will find the heat. The cool side is fine with that temp range but that hot side is an accident waiting to happen for sure.

So 90-92 inside glass temp? Ya I reread the glass tank how to. Dont know where I got to thinking that it was supposed around 95* but then she still felt cool to the touch.
Thanks for setting me straight. We'll luckily yesterday while checking her over shed, I didn't see anything off or obvious damage, hopefully nothing internally.

she most likely hasn't been in contact with the hottest part luckily so she should be ok. no worries man I just didn't want you to have an accident with the snake and be freaking out if she got burnt.
