    Leave her in her tank and she'll warm up. The last thing you want to do is stress her out by handling.

    I would do just what you are doing; warm her slowly against your skin and watch for any signs of RI caused by the shipping fiasco.

    I'm so happy that you are finally holding her!!

    I know I was just seeing how cold she was relative to my body temp. she is doing great! I'm posting some pics soon! I didn't want her to stress so i took some quick shots of her and then more when she is in her cage. She is a climber!

    Glad to hear she made it in all right! Can we expect some pictures once she warms up a little bit?

    Glad she made it -- balls can take the cold more than they're given credit for. Let her settle in and warm up and she should be just fine.

    Congratulations

    So long as her enclosure has a good temperature gradient...she'll settle wherever she's most comfortable. I'm sure she'll be fine! VERY glad to hear she arrived safe and sound!
