It's like if she misses the food the first 3 times she would run away and hide in her huts. I m using frozen fuzzy mice and thaw out in hot water and do the zombie dance with feeding tone.
    Good on thermostat to control UTH. However, is that your only heating element? If using another heating device, that also NEEDS a thermostat. All heating elements must be regulated by thermostat.
