    Re: New Scrub - Very Frightened / Nervous

    I think you're trying a little too hard. If she's almost two then she was obviously eating before you got her so she won't starve. I would leave her alone. Let her get comfortable before offering any more food. She'll eat when she's hungry. Scrubs are often nervous and defensive. My male has gotten better after 14 months but he still prefers to be left alone. I have my scrub in a tank now too but I started him out in a smaller tub. You could try covering the sides of her enclosure to see if it gives her more of a sense of security. I would try feeding her when you see her comfortably perching and cruising her enclosure.
