My BP sits in his waterbowl all the time

[dr del]

Hi,

BP's will also use their waterbowls as a hide if nothing else suitable is around.

They like their hides to touch them all over (i.e. be tight ) and the water gives them this feeling.

You mention only one hide in the cool end - you really want a nice dark secure hide in both the cool and warm end.

Those half log hides are a bit open and exposed - this is worse if they are also too large. What kind of hides are you using?

Also your temps are off.

I take the temps inside their hides as that is where they normally sit and your cool end hide should be 80f and the warm end hide around 90-92F.
