    Her humidity is actually on the lower side lately, thanks to having to turn our heat on... around 45-50% unless it’s during the couple of hours after I misted, when it’s 60-70%. However, I don’t mist that frequently - maybe a couple of times a week or something.

    She does explore at night so maybe she scraped it on something. Not sure. It doesn’t appear raised really, though.
