She is in a 29 gallon aquarium. Using a small UTH and ceramic heat bulb as our house can still get chilly on cold days. Temp under the warm cave is around 86* F, basking spot is 91* F and cool side is 73* F or so, it fluctuates with the house temp. Cool side has a cave, the water dish is between the two caves and there is a large piece of flat drift wood that kind lays across both hides and shades most of the floor so she doesn't feel exposed to things above.
Not sure what the humidity is but she isn't wrinkly and her cypress is slightly damp, she likes to knock over her water dish at night. I replaced the dish she had with a much heavier crock so she shouldn't be able to spill anymore.
I haven't been able to feed her a rat yet, none of the local pet stores have rats the right size. I may have tracked down a semi local source for frozen rats, waiting back on a email. I did feed her three mice today.
She doesn't seem stressed per say until I try to handle her. She is active and curious in her cage, comes out regular and checks everything out. When I had her out today, she cruised around on the couch nice and slow with no signs of trying to escape or hide until I touched her.
As far as her age goes, any way to get a rough estimate? Even though she is rescue, she was a good body weight when I got her so she was at least feed somewhat regularly. Her owner had recently went to prison and I'm not sure if his wife was feeding her or not. I was thinking she is probably between 6 months and a year. She is the smallest ball I've ever had.
425 grms, not sure of length but at least 2'. Only picture I have of her in my hands, taken about week ago after her first shed with me.
