    Follow what Sauzo said about feeding and water. They respond best to prey offered in front of them on the perch and allowing them to "hunt" it. Ganja wants her prey slowly moved toward her head and takes about a minute or two before she shows interest. It is important not to just offer and give up. It can take several attempts before they strike and coil.


    Thanks everyone for your support and information so far. I went to the store and picked some things up this morning and will make some more changes tonight after work.
    I'm going to
    Cover the sides and back with some background
    And made another change to my heat set up to bring down the temp some more. I made a change last night and the cool side went down to 75 to 77 but the hot spot is still a bit too high.
    I'm going to order a elevated water dish too and put in some more plastic leaves so there is more hiding spots.
    Anyone know were to get some chick down for scent? Should I just try to pick up a frozen chick this weekend at the expo?

    As far as the weight I'm pretty I read in correctly, unless its not accurate. tho I do use it for all of my other guys and it seems correct. I guess I will have to dig out my calibrated weight set to check it I guess maybe its off on the low end.
