The most interesting thing just happened. I bumped up temps. and zapped the rat with the hairdryer and when i went to offer it she came right out and went into strike mode and then just didnt care. i moved it slightly (i didnt touch her with it) but when i did for some reason she moved back really quickly like when she is scared. I moved it to where she could see it and then she did it again and moved away from it fast and then went quickly into her house. Could she be afraid of it for some reason? What i dont understand though is that she ate last week so why would she be afraid? As well All night she was up climbing up the sides and burrowing (as i said in the previous post) so she is clearly hungry but i just thought that was nuts. I put the rat in the warm hide as suggested and she didnt seem to care. She spent her whole night in the cold side (she was freezing this morning) so maybe she is afraid of it?
