    Re: New BP not eating? Is that normal?

    BTW here are some pics of the BP! To me, he doesn't look underweight at all, despite not eating for a long time. (I can see a bit of his spine but it's not the triangular shape yet)
    Also, he came out exploring after 15 minutes of me putting the probe in between the UTH and glass!

    Does it look underweight to you guys though? My judgement probably is not correct.
    I'm no expert but he looks fine and dandy !

    Incidentally it's important to know / understand that the temp setting you keep referring to on your stat / thermostat is just a guide and the actual surface temp could be anything !!

    When you get a digital thermometer with a wired probe and /or a digital temp gun you use them to take the actual surface temperature THEN adjust the thermostat accordingly ..

    Hope that makes sense .. I'm dyslexic/Aspergers and rubbish with words !!
