    BTW, she did these awkward move twice, is that her just helping her get the mouse down the chute or is that the unfamous spider wobble?




    This is just now, in my inexperience I don't see any noticeable lump on her.

    The same thing happened to me once! Lol, it was stuck to the inside of the hide. They like to poop on there, for some reason. And youre welcome!

    Looks good to me. As long as she doesnt look like she has a football in her stomach, it was a good sized meal. Did she go back in her hide?

    Also, go with your feeding schedule. Dont over feed, and make sure the mouse is fully thawed

    What a mess!!! Today is feeding day and Kira as usual wakes up and is ready for action as soon as she smells mouse.

    I offered, she bit immediately and rolled slightly (as usual) and I thought or didn't thought, what if... I simulate the mouse is still alive by moving it a little with the tongs?

    DUMB!!! She squished the bejesus out of that mouse! I swear she was gonna pop it! squished for like 10 min. Then she wasn't able to let go, her teeth were stuck on the mouses' belly so she dragged it all around (that was actually funny).



    By the time she managed to let go, she was on her water bowl, yup! dinner took a bath. And the mouse all covered in blood. The weirdest thing was how much time she took to find the head.



    First tried the tail (failed), went back to the torso (fail), smelled the head and went back to the tail... that for other 10 min.

    She finally found the head and swallowed inside her water, she definitely ingested a serious amount of bloody water. Hope it don't affect her digestion.

    Moral? DON'T PLAY WITH THE FOOD!!!

    Re: First BP.

    Ok so today will be cleaning day. I haven't found much info on the topic maybe because it is a no brainer for normal people, but fortunately may parents always hired aid for cleaning so I've found the rough way I never developed those skills (when I moved on my own I couldn't tell between the washing machine and the dryer) LOL! I'm improving!!! One step at a time.

    Ok so step by step the plan is:
    1. Put Kira on my biggest tupperweare with a shirt inside and cover it, not sealed.
    2. Remove the decors and put everything on a tub to deal with later.
    3. Disassemble al the lights, misting system, UTH, etc. and take the tub to the yard.
    3. Dispose the substrate, soak it, apply product, let it sit for 5-10 min, scrub, rinse thoroughly and dry.
    4. Pretty much the same for the hides, just watter and hand rubbing por the plastic plants.
    5. New substrate, put everything back.
    6. Play with Kira for a while, and then put her back in.

    And that's it?!?! If I am missing something Or got something wrong pleas let me know. Thanks!!!!
