hey all, new to the forum. Just wanted to show you some pics of my new baby...
Ive had some concerns as of day 1 she would not go inside her hide, heck I swapped it out. And since going from the hide in pic 1, she has not even poked her hide in the second hide I have. The hide I switched too was the half log. I did get a second log that I stacked on the first one as shes active and likes to climb on the branches a lot. She also loves to sleep under the log a lot. She does hiss often, and tends to be sleeping constantly till late night. If shes active, she doesnt mind being picked, but when shes balled up sleeping....its constant hissing. I read on here tonight to black out the sides and back. I will do that. I do have my heat sources plugged into a thermostat that regulates heat. I tend to have it anywhere from 78-82 at night. During the day it tends to be 88-90. I live in So Cal, not far from the beach (1.5 miles from beach). I dont have a humidity meter, but comfortably I will say my terrarium tends to be on the dryer side (30-50%). To solve this I put a black towel over head in the middle. I am debating to get a snake hook to pick her up as I know young ones can be a lil anxious with holding. Also with the 2 branches I have and her constantly under both of them, it can be a pain to grab her without removing the branches. Below is the current set up.
I know next pic is blurry but not really worth retaking the pic lol...just a pic of the thermostat I am using
