Thanks for responding =) she hasn't done it today.. and i took her outside today and she's very active and she ate a very good breakfast.
I have her in a rubbermaid container (indoors) about 3 feet long and 1 foot across. i have basking lamp on one side of the container (with pine chips, i know cedar are deadly) and the other side with calcium sand which is cooler (her food and water is over on the cool side). I keep the temp. on the warm side around 80F. and i take her out ever chance i get to soak up all that good UV =)
originally i had her in a 10 gallon fish tank, but after reading on her i knew she wouldn't be happy or healthy in there.
I also have another question... she doesn't seem to drink when she's in her container. i do bathe her once or twice a week and she drink when she's in the bathtub. should i be concerned about her not drinking ?
thanks again
Jen
