Still soaking after meal?? Is that ok?

[ndizzleg]

Well i had fed my ball(about 6 months old) an adult mouse last night(a decnt size bigger than what i usually feed). And he finished swallowing the mouse around 8pm. And I woke up this morning to find him still laying in the water dish.. And no he doesnt have mites..i looked all over him and in the water, no mites. But everyone is saying that they will soak to help support the weight of the big meal,..but for how long, because since last night and up until this morning he's still in there.. Should i be worried about this??

Haha wow, nevermind he just left the water bowl and went to his hide Figures

No do not be worried. I have a yearling female that likes to lay in her water for long periods of time and my setup is perfect with no mites. You may want to take it out of the water and hold if for a little bit and place it away from he water bowl in the hide. Then check back a little latter. This works on my little girl. Make sure that your setup is correct (humidity,heat,hides) first and foremost.
