    NEW PICS!!!!

    She was roaming after I had to take her out to put in her new thermometer with a probe! So I got some pics. She is still roaming, checking out the enclosure

    Temps are fine, and she ate 2 days ago so im 100% sure she is just curious about her surroundings

    Anyway, here are the pics!

    Pic 1

    AFTER
    (you cant see it in this pic but there is a third thermometer up in the far right corner with a white wire leading under the newspaper to a probe right behind her hide for ground temp readings)

    http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/1269/img0351m.jpg

    the one you see in the left, rectangle thermometer is ambient ONLY and humidity.

    The one down to right oval thermometer is ambient and with a probe. currently has the probe mode on and is under the hide closest to it.

    Enjoy! Going to upload to my gallery soon aswell

    What were you doing when she "sneezed"? It certainly could have been a hiss, but to be safe I'd definitely keep watching her. You've only had her like a week right?

    Also, I can't really tell from the pics.. is there duct tape INSIDE the enclosure? Or is that on the wall?

    I was kinda checking the thermometer that was near her. She was facing me. I was backingo ff tho cuz I didnt wanna spooke her

    Also the duct tape is outside, aswell as the paper its attached to :)

    Also I picked her up twice to check her out now

    Ive had her roughly a week yeah

    I looked VERY closely at her nose and mouth. nothing out of the ordinary

    Okay, well, it's hard to tell if you didn't witness it, but for now I would watch her very carefully. Since your hand was in the cage and she was watching you, it sounds like it may have been a hiss, but still keep your eye on her.

    Did it sound like she was pushing it out?

    Kinda... It almsot sounded like sand paper rubbing together. but much quieter.

    My hand wasn't in the tank, But I was very close to it. I had my head close to the glass to read the temps.

    Thanks, ill pick her up once a day for inspection

    If that's what you heard, it was most likely a hiss.

    It sounded similar to that only a lot sharper, shorter and her mouth was open

    My short tail will sharply exhale once when I startle him. I guess it might sound like a sneeze? He's opened his mouth at me when he felt threatened, as well. Since you were in there messing with her I wouldn't immediately freak out. Just keep an eye on her and listen for her making noises when you aren't disturbing her.

    okay, Yeah my head was very close to the glass and hse was facing me

    I greatly hope thats what it was

    I will be monitoring the sound in there. I keep hearing the paper rustle but other than that nothing unusual

    Thanks again, I really hope you are right!!!
