Alright, so Petsmart didn't have any thermostats, so I'll be ordering one online today, probably the Jump Start. I'm going to try to offer her two of the rat fuzzies tomorrow instead of one, just to rule out that her wandering isnt because she's hungry.
I also got a much better thermometer/hygrometer that has probes to get better readings, so I'll use that until i get my thermostat.
Question: I did get a dome light fixture and a ceramic heat emitter, so could I unplug the UTH and just use the light? I understood that BPs needed belly heat for digestion and they're not basking snakes, but since the UTH is so unreliable, I wonder if the CHE is the better option for now.
I did clean a bit of waste out of her cage today, and she tagged me for the first time - I'm guessing because I was looking at F/T rats at the store and I didn't wash my hands before picking her up, sorry Kira darling! The fear of being bitten is so much worse than the actual bite, though obviously I'll avoid it in the future so her teeth don't get damaged!
