i am keeping them at 70F at night, and the same in day with 90F basking spot. the bigger male in with her seems to push her out the way from the basking spot, but she has plenty of opportunity to feed for herself. ive just given both a dose of systamex (de-wormer) about 2 weeks ago. i guess it may just be cos this is her first year and shes from the wild. should i attempt to force-feed or just wait a bit and see if she begins to eat?
