    ... Just curious about what you mean? What's his temps in his tubs now? Have they been low before now?

    They have been a little low for my liking but perfectly sitable for the most part. She has always had an appropriate basking area but now the the actual temp has risen she roams around a bit more.

    Is there a stress trigger somewhere? How low are your temps? Make sure your viv isn't in a high traffic area or where the dogs/cats/ pets can harrass and frighten your snakey baby.

    No I'm starting to think she's stressed. Nothing can disturb her because she's all alone. Temp is fine but humidity is about 45. Maybe she's about to go into shed? It has been a while and she might be due.

    Well, I hope she isn't stressed. If she is I wouldn't even know what to do.

    Re: Hurrah!

    Is 70 ideal? Should it be a bit higher when she is in shed?

    50% when not in "blue" and 70% when in "blue". Also, if her temps have been low, make sure to keep her temps highers when she's in shed. Low temps and high humidity can cause RI. How are you keep her heated btw? She in a tub or a tank? If you can wing it, use a tub. Holds heat and humidity WAY better, easier to clean and saves ya space.

    Blue? RI? Sorry, I'm just not familiar with those terms. =/
    She's in a 20L tank, aspen substrate, with an undertank heater and 70 watt heat lamp.
