Alice refused a medium rat on Tuesday. I fed her 2 large mice and one small rat today. Overall feeding response was much better than last week. I will continue to offer her a medium rat first on future feedings. Maybe next week I will try two small rats if she refuses the medium.
The Herpstat ND is working out very well. I really like the drop in temps at night without having to turn the heat completely off. The temp alarm is also very nice and will help me to stay on top of heat failures.
Also, while talking about her environment, the best solution I have found to add humidity to her environment is a cool mist humidifier next to her habitat. I ordered a Safety 1st 360 degree model from Target online. I only have to use it part of the time and it is compact and does a great job. I try to keep her humidity around 30 to 40 percent.
