    Too crowed you think?

    I picked up a hide box for my 900 gram pastave since she seemed to be out growing the medium sized she is in a 28qt and the hide is a large. She hasn't had a hide for two weeks and has feed twice without a issue.

    That hide is a bit big for her, looks like she's only using 2/3 of it. If she's not wearing the smaller one as a hat, you might want to go back to it. If it is way too small, crumple up some paper towel to take up some empty space in the new one, or make sure there's extra bedding.

    The other problem I see is that she doesn't have a cool hide, and she can't move that one (one of our girls stays in one hide but moves it with her from warm to cool spots). At least turn the hide and position it so half is over the heat and half isn't.

    In tubs if they are eating I do not provide hides now being crowded is not a negative thing so it's up to you and see what works for her.
