#2061344 Silenceafable View Profile	Finally!!! Okay, no pics yet, but Lacey just had her first shed last night. She was born three weeks ago, and she was my pick of the litter. I just don’t understand why it took so long for her to shed. Any ideas? Housed in 12 qt tub on newspaper - two hides and a water dish - heated w/ 3" flexwatt Warm temp - 94F Cool Temp - 82F Humidity - 58%

Id bring those temps down a few degrees. 94 is awfully warm, should be more like 78 cool side and 88 warm side. Humidity looks fine. That could be bumped up mabey a smidge by using slightly damp paper towels...but Meh...theres certainly nothing wrong with newspaper and 58% is in the good range. Everything else sounds perfect too. Might be shes just a late bloomer. Has she eaten for you yet, or were you waiting for her first shed?
