    Upgrade 2.0

    The room gets very cold at night and to help with the water evaporating to increase humidity. The nice thing is these are very small UTH pads, so they only get up to 80F from when I have used my temp gun on them. Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk

    Does your T do this too

    I have a water bowl in my B. smithi enclosure and whenever I fill it with water she fills it up with soil and covers it in webbing. Every. Single. Time. Does anybody else have this happen to them as well? Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk

    The thing that was weird was that she was in her hide and then came out. But that could be her just defending her territory and maybe some grumpyness being close to molt.

    She was out this morning when I went to turn the lights on and did not react to me at all
