Meet Zavvi, she is 1 and half years old, 500grms. I will feed her in a weeks time on a small rat (or not as the case may be )
She is curently in a RUB on newspapper with a rock, a shell, a decent sized water bowl and 1 hide which she moves to suit herself. The hide given to me is to small so shes never in the hide, the hide is on her, its totaly off the ground so shes soon ging to get the best tupperware bowl that i can drill a hole in! |

Thanks for the comments guys but i need some advise. She only likes the hide shes always had, i have put a cereal box in with her but she stays in the small hide wether its on the hot or the cold side. I want her to use both hides so she has one cold one and one hot one but she oviously prefers one over the other. So, should i use two cereal boxes so she cant be biased towards one (but this could stress her out and stop her feeding), or do i leave both hides in and hope she eventualy decides to use both, or finaly, do i just leave her one hide in that she seems to move to the place that she wants it? Decisions decisions.... |

i'd leave her original hide and a ceral box so she has a choice, i think eventually she'll get used to the new hides and be fine, then once she starts using the cereal box, you could take out the hide thats too small and replace it with another cereal box |

Is her original hide a side entrance? If it is, than put a cereal box over it, so the entrance to her existing hide is easily found. Hopefully she'll also then get used to the other hide as well. |

mine loves the cork bark and wont go in her plant pot hide that is on the warm side which she used to never come out of.
i just leave her be....she has got the option of either and she goes where she wants to go.
all i do is wen i put my royal back i put her in towards the plant pot which she goes into then comes out of in her own time so at least i know she knows where it is..
chester is the same he loves his cork bark and preferes it wether it is on the hot or cold side. |
