Help! She hates her new cage!

[Manu]

Hello!



Maybe/most likely a lack of sense of security, the animal have had in it's brevious terrarium (although not suitable in several ways it provided a narrow, "protected" environment).
Solution: Fixing cotton towles or something like that on eg. the terrarium's frontside and one or eventually two sides (if the terrarium is placed in front of a wall).
That
- would provide a protected environment (again),
- would help to increase humidity (if you moist the towels) and
- would still provide proper ventilation.



With the best regards,
Emanuel

yea that thing is a POS.

go get a digital thermometer.

ANd she does look much better, shes just stressed and pissy bout the cage change.

I agree, those are worthless.
You want a good digital therm with a probe.
Place the probe in the spot where your cham basks, and monitor the temp for an hour or so (it may fluctuate).
