    What are some ways to reduce stress?

    Hi everyone. I messed up.

    Got my new ball. And she seemed super calm right when. We got her. Didn't touch her for the day. Next day was a vet visit to get her checked out. We have been taking her out a lot and now she is showing every sign of stress except not eating. She ate on the 5th before I got her. Then I fed her the 13th. Then yesterday she was just looking hungry, searching, kind of in the open, was ready to strike for no reason (which I now know is all stress related) but we fed her again. Baby fuzzies. She was on live before and had absolutely no issues going to f/t so I just assumed she was doing okay.

    Temps are ~90/80 ~54% humidity. I'm thinking about increasing it.

    What are some good ways to reduce stress? She stays right in the center of the cage always. Never going on the hot or cool side. The center does have a lot of plants to hide and a hide too. Then she has a half log hide and a hidea on the cool side.

    I told my girlfriend just no touching for a week. I think that may be the best idea. Anyone else for reducing stress?
