is this normal? HELP
I'm a new owner, and have made some mistakes, but i think everything is ok now.
I have my baby ball python in a 20 gallon tank with 2 identical hides, and LOTS of clutter to make her secure. Temps. are 90-93 on hot, 81-84 on the cool. Hum. is about a constant 54% and ambient is always around 76.
I have had her now for about a month and a half, and I'm a little worried. i thought she was doing fine, so after 2 weeks i started holding her for short times everyday to every other day, and she LOVED IT. then when feeding days came, i couldn't get her to eat. In the past month she's eaten 2 SMALL fuzzy mice total. So i stopped handling her, hoping it she would eat, and didn't. Now, for the past week i am finding her cramming herself in small and odd places.
poo twice (second time yesterday)
pee once.
I'm afraid I'm doing SOMETHING wrong, and she's trying to tell me "HELLO, YOU'RE KILLING ME!!!!!"
maybe I'm just paranoid?
let me know, your help and opinion is NEEDED.
by the way: we also got a spider male with my pastel, he's a month older, a bit smaller and HAMMERING DOWN rat pups every 5 days!
