A newbie here! First of all, thank you all for the great advice that is posted...more helpful than books. After years of nagging my family and reading books, I finally got my first T (2"rosie, name is Octavia). Everything is great...I keep the humitity between 40 and 50%, 70-75 degrees. There is a water bowl, but I have never seen her drink from it. Should I be worried? I don't want her to dry out. Also, I placed a arched log that fits in the corner for a retreat. If I put black paper behind the corner for darkness, she hides in there and won't come out even for crickets (she waits until they go in), but if I take the paper off and light comes in, she perches on the log or hangs out around it. Which is better for her? I want her to feel secure and she doesn't seem stressed. I'm a really overprotective mom and I want the best for her! Oh yes...she eats like I starve her...which I don't! P.S. After her next molt, I'll know if she is Octavia or Octavius!
