Not kill my T..2. Setup a new enclosure and 3. Rehouse my new 8 legged friend <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />. Now for the tough part..what should I expect from my T? so far she hasn't eaten and seems pretty lazy (although she has been more active the past couple of hours). My biggest concern is feeding. Since she doesn't communicate when she's hungry how do I know? I was also wondering if I should invest in a heater? I'm constantly researching and reading posts but I can't really find anything really specific about my T. Sorry for the long post but I appreciate any helpful info.</p></blockquote><p></p>
