    twitching?

    Ive had my ball for about 3 weeks now and ive noticed she randomly twitches around her stomach area and then i look at her and she moves like nothing is happening she eats fine shes active and she pees but ive yet to have her drop a deuce yet.
    im sorry if this has been answered before ive googled but haven't gotten a clear answer.
    her warm side is at 85 degrees with a basking area of 90 with a 58ish percent humidity.

    I'm sorry I can't be of more help as I have not heard nor seen this happen before. I hope everything will be okay and it is nothing serious.

    If you are really concerned you can take her to a vet
    However she seems to be doing well (eating, peeing)
    As far as not pooping, Ive had my bp not poop for 2 shed cycle. Its not uncommon for them to have a bowel movement a month apart.

    Yeah, three weeks isnt that long. Usually for me it means she's waiting till post-shed

    Re: twitching?

    Yeah she only has done it twice since ive had her so she isnt doing it constantly but she seems fine shes actually really active even my friend who works at the reptile shop i got her from says she looks way better here. About the pooping thing he did tell me to give her another week or two.
