Hiding

[hughman 125]

Well if shes not eating lets start off by doing this

What is she housed in?
What are her hides?
What is her hotspot temp?
What is her ambient temp?
What is her humidity?
How long have you had her?

Also how are you heating the cage and what are u measuring with.

Husbandry would be one reason she is not eating would also explain why she was moving around a lot before.

i have her in a 29 gallon glass tank on a shelf in a small closet that i alwayys have the doors open but shes still closed in on 3 sides. i have one hide which is a plastic log where she always stays, her hotspot temp is usually around 89 and her cool side usually around 81. the humidity stays in between 40 and 50 which i cant seem too get up any longer than a couple hours and i have had her for coming on 4 months now. I have been using a heat lamp to keep the temp up but its not directly on top of the cage its hanging maybe 4 or 5 inches above it, which since i did that, the humidity has risen about 10 percent and for temp i have a digital temp. guage and for humidity i just have a little guage with a hand.

You need 2. Reason being yes she may always stay there but where else is she gonna go? She wont sit out in the open. She will choose security over anything else. She gets to hot she wont move because she feels secure there.

Also are you using a uth?

okay, i just made her a second one out of a cereal box, i will get her a real one from the store soon.. and sad too say, what is a uth?

UTH = Under tank heater.

Usually a heatmat or you can get tape that does the same thing called flexi watt

You need a UTH because belly-heat's important for BPs

Unless it's a problem with the thermostat that you've presumably got the heatmat running through?

You could try plugging the heatmat directly into the mains to check, but obviously NOT with your snake on it! A heatmat running without a thermostat to control the output will burn the snake !
