[QUOTE="rénee, post: 55755, member: 4153"] when i first got my Rosea a few weeks back, i was told from the shop that she needed high humidity and wet substrate, then the minute i put her in her new home she immediately started heading for the wall and would not come down. So i put my girl in a temp container, got out some baking pans and laid out the substrate and dried it all out(took me 3 hours!), she now will not leave the ground! in fact she barely climbs now. My girl also hasn't eaten in 2 weeks, and kind of just hides and is slow moving, pretty sure she's in pre-molt. As many people have told me on here, and as TabithasMom mentioned above, if the substrate is a bit too wet for their liking they will try avoiding the ground like mine did. :) [/QUOTE]
