She took a nip at me last week so I decided to leave her, she seemed interested in mice but not enough to eat. She was active a few days ago but today Ive not seen her at all. I have a lamp on a timer the previous owner set up and Ive made no changes to her environment, Ive stopped trying to feed her as Ive been advised this may be causing stress. Shes now just hiding under a log, same place she was this morning, Im reticent to keep checking on her and disturbing her as I want to let her settle. No visual signs of anything wrong, concerned as shes been a timid pet as far as I know and now shes hiding, gone for me once and off her food. Ive left sock in her viv that I rubbed on my hands and arms to leave my scent with her, I was advised to place my hand in the viv with her from time to time but have decided to let her settle, just over a week since shes been with me but a tad concerned.
